Water testing

Water testing shows how clean your water really is and which treatment solution is needed to make it safe and high-quality.

Clear drinking water does not always mean that it is completely safe. Water can contain substances that are invisible to the naked eye, exceed recommended limits and affect both water quality and health. A water analysis is therefore an important first step in choosing the right treatment solution.

WATEX offers chemical drinking-water analysis to assess the actual composition of the water and prepare an individual water-filter solution. The service is suitable for checking both drinking water and household water. We normally determine six main chemical parameters.

Water parameters analysed

total water hardness
iron content
ammonium ions
sulfate ions
oxidisability
electrical conductivity

By submitting a water sample and following the instructions below, you will learn the chemical composition of your water and receive a free professional consultation and a treatment proposal suited to your needs.

Note: we do not perform microbiological testing.

Good to know

When you purchase a WATEX water filter, we refund 100% of the water-analysis fee.

The analysis fee is deducted from the final treatment solution.

How to take a water sample

1. Thoroughly rinse a 0.5-litre PET bottle. We recommend using a bottle intended for drinking water.

2. Before filling the bottle, let the water run for at least 15 minutes.

3. Fill the bottle to the top and make sure no air remains inside.

4. Deliver the sample to the WATEX customer service centre: Reti tee 11, Peetri alevik, Rae vald, 75312, Estonia.
