Philadelphia's water mains date back to 1801, with an average main age near 80 years. Over 20,000 homes still connect through lead service lines, mostly in properties built before 1986. Our first draw and flush lead and copper test checks both the water sitting in your pipes overnight and the water flowing after a flush. That comparison is exactly the kind of detail our water quality experts have flagged in the field for over 30 years.
Philadelphia draws from the Delaware and Schuylkill rivers, both loaded with organic matter from upstream runoff. Chlorine added to disinfect that water reacts with the organic matter and forms trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids. Both have been linked to increased cancer risk with long-term exposure. Our in-house lab runs disinfection byproduct panels on site, the same panels other testing companies send us when they need results they can stand behind.
PWD's own testing shows PFOA and PFOS above the EPA's 4 ppt limit at its treatment plants. A compliance deadline extension to 2031 means the utility is not currently in violation, but the chemicals are still present now. Our PFAS "forever chemical" drinking water test screens for 18 compounds so you know your own exposure today, not in 2031.

“The test was simple–collect a water sample from a faucet in the home. We sent the test to the lab and received a water quality analysis within a few days. The test included analysis of the water sample for the presence of: coliform bacteria, E. coli, iron, lead, pH, turbidity, and nitrates/nitrites.”
“Incredible lab, they really care about their customers. As someone who doesn’t know a whole lot about water quality, they took their time to help me understand everything about my water quality situation.”
