Find a Indiana-certified testing lab
Get your well tested at a Indiana-certified laboratory. We list certification programs by state.
Already tested your well? Get a free plain-English reading
Upload your well water lab report (PDF or a photo) and our team will email you a full, plain-English reading of every result โ free. Educational only, never medical advice.
Your upload also helps us keep local water data accurate โ we only ever share anonymized, area-level summaries.
Upload my well testThese figures are USGS area estimates: statistical groundwater models describing how likely elevated contaminant levels are across a county. They are not designed to predict the concentration in any single well. Only testing your own well reveals its water quality.
Need whole-house or professional water treatment?
For the problems a pitcher or under-sink filter cannot fix โ scale, rust and black staining, sulfur smell, well contamination, or test results you cannot explain. Tell us what is happening and we will connect you with a local water-treatment professional.
