Certified by the Kentucky Division of Water drinking water laboratory certification program (lab ID KY00076) for: Microbiology, Chemistry. From the 2025 Kentucky certified drinking water laboratory list (revised April 28, 2025). Call first to confirm the lab accepts samples from private well owners and to ask about bottles, drop-off hours and pricing.
Bacteria samples need a sterile bottle from the lab. Chemistry samples usually take a clean container the lab supplies.
Skip softeners and filters. Remove the aerator, run the water 3 to 5 minutes, then fill without touching the inside of the cap.
Bacteria samples are time-sensitive. Use a cooler with ice packs and hand it in or ship it the same day.
Compare results with EPA drinking water limits. If anything is over, our problem pages explain what it means and how to treat it.
