Safe drinking water starts with a comprehensive test.
Tap Score designs its water test kits with the most common tap water toxins and parameters in mind. Comprehensive water tests provide a thorough understanding of your water quality, and the information needed to dig deeper. Ready to get started?
What is your water source?
-
City WaterIf your tap water comes from a utility
City Water TestsThese tests provide analysis for concerns and toxins commonly associated with treated, municipal water, like lead and disinfection byproducts.
-
Well WaterIf your tap water comes from a well
Well Water TestsThese tests provide analysis for issues commonly associated with untreated groundwater, like coliform bacteria and nitrates.
More accurate and thorough than DIY test strips.
If you’re testing your water for the first time, a comprehensive lab test is the best place to start. Unlike DIY strips, which typically screen for a limited set of water quality indicators, lab testing can measure a wider range of contaminants with greater precision. With that baseline in hand, you can decide whether any specific findings or concerns are worth investigating further.

Find the right comprehensive test for your water source
Tap Score offers tests designed for less common water sources, including spring and rainwater.
Comprehensive lab results can help you choose the right filter.
To choose a filter, start by finding out what’s actually in your water. Everyone’s water quality is different, so contaminants you’ve heard about, like PFAS, lead, bacteria, or microplastics may or may not be a concern in your water.
This water test is our most extensive testing panel, including water analysis for a wide range of parameters as well as regulated and unregulated contaminants. For more than just common concerns, this kit is helpful in specific circumstances.
