How do I sample my water?

It’s easy! Follow these simple steps to collect your water sample, using the supplies included in your test kit.

  1. Use the plastic container included in your test kit to collect your water sample.
  2. Let the water run for five minutes.
  3. Rinse the container several times with the water that is being sampled and then fill the sample container. Send at least one-half pint of water to be tested.
  4. If it is not possible to send the sample to the lab immediately after collection, refrigerate it until it is sent.

Choosing the correct filters for your water will protect your equipment from corrosion, hard water build-up, and biofilms while allowing you to run comfortably at your required flow rate.

  • Prevent taint precursors and heavy metals that cause off-flavors, corrosion, & toxicity
  • Reduce impurities that affect the efficiency of wine additions
