Testing for chlorine and chloramine at home

The most sensible way to test your chlorine levels is with self-testing. Chlorine is a very volatile chemical (it evaporates quickly) and properly measuring chlorine in the lab requires expensive shipping methods and refrigeration. In order to give you a cost-effective measurement of your home's chlorine levels your package includes a FREE chlorine test strip. The strip we send you will show Total Chlorine and Free Chlorine in your water, from which the presence of Chloramine can also be derived.

Looking for something that's not part of this package? We can test for hundreds of contaminants. Browse our specialized testing packages or Contact Us.

When testing is complete, you will receive a Tap Score Water Quality Report including a comprehensive analysis of all test results, health impacts, treatment options, and household water appliance risks. If all you want is the raw result data, we can do that too. This mini-tour highlights some of what makes Tap Score unique.

Testing packages include sterilized water sampling vial(s), cold pack (where applicable), return shipping, testing instructions, sample information card, and padding for the contents.

Please note that unless otherwise specified, each product is intended for a single sampling location.

Once the lab receives your box, your personalized Tap Score Report will arrive by email within 5 business days.
