Common Situations That Trigger a Sampling Call

If any of these describe your situation — you need sampling, not guesswork.

School or daycare tap testing

LCRR mandates first-draw lead & copper at all outlets — IRIS provides compliant sampling and reporting.

Cooling tower or hot water system

ASHRAE 188 / NYC LL77 Legionella monitoring — NY cooling towers require culture (ISO 11731) by an ELAP-certified lab; Legiolert covers L. pneumophila for WMP verification.

Private well — homeowner concern

Metals, coliform, E. coli, and PFAS screening for residential and agricultural well owners.

PFAS concern near impacted area

AFFF site, landfill, or industrial discharge nearby — PFAS panels 533/537.1/8327 at parts-per-trillion detection.

NPDES permit — effluent compliance

Metals in wastewater discharge — results formatted for NJ DEP discharge monitoring reports (DMR).

Unknown taste, odor, or discoloration

Diagnostic water panel — ICP metals plus microbiology to identify the likely source of the complaint.
