Water Well Maintenance

In many parts of the world, water is not safe enough to drink. There are basic qualitative observations that quickly determine if water is not safe to consume. However, there are also many “invisible” substances that must be tested for professionally to identify the contaminants and to figure out how the specific polluted water can be purified. Testing can be done in the field with portable test kits or mobile laboratories. Water samples can also be collected and sent to a professional laboratory. That is why, WIN agrees with the companies that guarantee these standards.
