In Northford CT, water quality testing is the responsibility of, private well owners themselves.
Groundwater (the source of fresh water for households like yours with a well) can become contaminated in many ways through contact with natural pollutants, including:
Arsenic, Lead, Radon, Fluoride, Nitrates, E-coli Bacteria, Heavy Metals, Coli-form Bacteria, Uranium, Pesticides, Herbicides, Round-Up (Glyphosate), VOC’s (volitile organic chemicals), TPH (total petroleum hydrocarbon) and more.
The degree to which a potential health threat may exist depends on the amount and type of the contamination. In some cases, contamination of your water can be detected by sight, taste or smell.
However, in most cases problems with your well or drinking water quality can only be detected through professional testing of the water.
We strive to provide you with the information and resources you need to help you maintain safe drinking water in your well.
