Watersafe Bacteria Test Kit is an EPA based test to check for the presence of Coliform Bacteria in your water.

The presence of bacteria in drinking water is usually a result of a problem with the water treatment system or the pipes which distribute water, and indicates that water may be contaminated with germs that can cause disease.

Bacteria and other potentially dangerous microbes commonly found in our environment, should not be present in our drinking water. Thousands of cases of bacterial illness occur every year, many of them fatal.
