Testing your house filtration water is important for several reasons:

If your are filtering your water it means you are getting from a borehole/ well point or rain/ storage tank. If this is the case then water testing even more important than tap water. Ground water and storage water have even more influencing parameters and change more often and more rapidly.

The filtration system you put in four years ago may not be the right solution for the current water your are receiving.

You also need to ensure that you are maintaining your system re changing filters, UV bulbs, filtration media etc.

Testing your water once it has gone through your system is crucial for determining whether your system is doing it’s job.

Carrying out a before an after test might also allow you to cut back on some of your components or change filters less regularly, thus saving you money.

Activated carbon filters can help improve taste and odour of ground water.

Rain is particularly has a particularly low pH making it acidic and therefore vital to raise the pH before bringing it anywhere near the copper pipes of the house.

UV bulbs loose potency over time and will not be as affective with water borne bacteria over time. A high microbiological bacteria reading means changing your bulb more regularly
