Professional Water Testing and Analysis
Know What Is in Your Water Before You Make Any Decisions
Water quality involves more than taste or clarity. Our testing evaluates both chemical and
biological factors so you can make informed choices with confidence.
Testing may include evaluation for:
PFAS and other chemical contaminants
Chlorine and disinfection byproducts
Heavy metals such as lead and arsenic
Bacteria, viruses, and protozoa that may be present in municipal or well water
You receive clear explanations of what is present, what matters for your home or property,
and what does not require action.

What Happens When Contaminants Remain Unchecked
When chemicals and microbes enter the body daily, the immune system must work overtime. Research shows this ongoing exposure can:
Weaken immune performance
Increase susceptibility to infections
Contribute to chronic inflammation
Irritate skin and respiratory systems
Create long-term health vulnerabilities
Many families live in a constant state of low-grade stress on the body without knowing why.
This is not about fear.
It is about awareness and prevention.

Water Treatment That Covers Everything
For Municipal and Well Water Systems
Water The Facts recommends treatment for both municipal water and private wells,
always starting with testing, so recommendations are based on real data, not assumptions.
Most homes focus only on softening water to protect plumbing and appliances. While that improves performance, it doesn't address the chemicals, byproducts, and compounds people are exposed to through drinking, bathing and daily household use.
Many of the most harmful contaminants cannot be removed by basic filters or carbon alone. They require specific, certified filtration media and treatment technologies designed to target chemical disinfectants, disinfection byproducts, heavy metals, and long-term health-impacting compounds.
Puronics technologies treat water at the point of entry, using high-quality, purpose-built media to improve water quality throughout the entire home for:
Health
Air Quality in Showers (Contaminants in Steam)
Skin and Hair Exposure
Drinking and Cooking
Household Cleaning
Plumbing Protection
Appliance Longevity
Each Puronics technology serves a specific role resulting in a layered treatment approach that is intentional and matched to the water - not generalized.
VIQUA UV Purification
Science-Based Water Protection for Every Faucet in Your Home
Water The Facts delivers transparent education and honest testing, and when appropriate,, recommends internationally certified purification technologies - including advanced filtration paired with VIQUA UV systems.
Each technology plays a specific role.
VIQUA UV systems are trusted worldwide and proven to neutralize:
Bacteria
Viruses
Protozoa
While advanced filtration removes:
PFAS and chemical contaminants
Chlorine byproducts
Heavy metals
Microplastics
The result is truly clean, safe, healthy water for bathing, cooking, drinking, and daily living.
5-Stage Alkaline Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water System
Point-of-Use Purification for Municipal and Well Water Homes
Water The Facts recommends reverse osmosis only when testing shows it provides clear value. When homeowners want the highest level of drinking water purity, we may recommend a 5-Stage Alkaline Reverse Osmosis system, installed at a dedicated faucet for drinking and cooking.
Not all water in the home needs to be treated the same way.
Each technology plays a specific role. The RO System is designed to reduce:
Dissolved solids (TDS)
PFAS and chemical contaminants (depending on conditions)
Heavy metals such as lead and arsenic
Chlorine and chlorine byproducts
Taste- and odor-causing compounds
The result is highly purified water intended specifically for drinking and food preparation.
Why alkaline remineralization is included:
Reverse osmosis removes dissolved contaminants
and natural minerals. The alkaline stage is added to:
Reintroduce select beneficial minerals
Improve taste and mouthfeel
Help balance pH after purification
What reverse osmosis does and does not do
While a point-of-use RO system provides exceptional drinking water quality on each dedicated faucet where installed, it does not replace whole-home filtration, conditioning, or UV disinfection.
That’s why RO is typically the final layer, used only where the highest purity is needed.
