Well, your first diagnostic tools are your senses! Most of the time you can see, taste, smell, and even feel contaminated water.
Some examples would be when water is red, orange, brown, or cloudy, that can signal iron, rust, or other contaminants in the plumbing running to your household or even the plumbing within your household.
You may also experience foul-smelling or bad-tasting water which would be signs of impurities in your water.
When you see any of those conditions you should contact us to get started on purifying your water!
