Here's what one customer said about our DIY Bacteria Test Kit:

"The Safe Home DIY Bacteria in Water Test Kit is an excellent option for anyone wanting a quick and reliable way to check their water for coliform bacteria. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the kit felt well-made and professional.

I appreciated that it provides results in as little as 24 hours, which is perfect when you need answers quickly. The fact that it’s EPA lab-certified and made in the USA gave me extra confidence in the accuracy.

I used it to test both tap and filtered water, and everything came back clear—which gave me real peace of mind. The 2-pack is a nice bonus if you want to re-test or use on another source like well water.

Highly recommend if you're looking for a straightforward, at-home water test that doesn’t require shipping samples out or waiting days for results."

Water Hardness is one of the most common water quality issues that homeowners struggle with. While it's not a health concern, it can cost you money by shortening appliance lifespan, especially in water heaters, where lime and other deposits can build up over time. It can also cause unsightly staining on your appliances and faucets.

Even if you have a softener, it's important to routinely test to ensure that the softener is adjusted correctly for your needs.

The Water Quality Association recently identified bacteria, PFAS, and lead as three of the biggest drinking water concerns for Americans.

The problem is that you can't see, smell, or taste any of these contaminants. The only way to know if they're in your water is to test for them.

At Safe Home Test Kits, we make water testing simple. Whether you have city water or a private well, knowing what's in your water helps you make informed decisions for your home and your family.

Before you invest in a water filter, make sure you know what's actually in your water.
Not all water filters are designed to remove the same contaminants. A filter that's great for one home may not be the right choice for another.
Testing your water before purchasing a filter helps you identify any contaminants that may be present, so you can choose a filter that's designed to address your home's specific water quality needs.

One of the main concerns we hear about here at Safe Home is PFAS in drinking water. These "Forever Chemicals" are difficult to remove from water and almost impossible to destroy. But University of Georgia researchers are working to develop a technology that could do just that.

"Through a process called electrochemical oxidation, the specially designed electrodes—made of titanium suboxides—can break down carbon-fluorine bonds, leading to the destruction of PFAS. Licensed by a global engineering consulting firm, his creation, DE-FLUORO, is the first eco-friendly destruction technology that prevents further environmental contamination by eradicating “forever chemicals” rather than merely containing them."

University of Georgia researchers are refining and developing innovative techniques to detect, track, and break down PFAS.
