LABORATORY TESTING
DRINKING WATER TESTING
Although water may look clean and clear, and have no smell nor taste, such looks may be deceiving. Captured water may contain substances with potential negative impact, and may contaminate well water occasionally. Only water analysis conducted by an accredited laboratory may reveal the whole story.
IRON OCHRE TESTING
Iron ochre is a reddish, muddy deposit caused by naturally occurring bacterial activity in the iron found in the soil and groundwater. When these bacteria are highly concentrated, they create a reddish gel.
VERMICULITE TESTING
Vermiculite is mainly used for insulating attics, and sometimes in wall insulation as well. "The potential risk to health associated with the vermiculite that was sold under the brand name Zonolite Attic Insulation and possibly other brands in Canada, has raised concerns recently. This is the ore in question; taken from the Libby Mine in Montana (before it closed in the 1990s) could contain small amounts of asbestos.
AIRBORNE ASBESTOS TEST
Asbestos is a fibrous rock used in the manufacturing of several composites, including insulation. Asbestos has been used in construction for its insulating properties. It can be found in the water heaters, insulation, fireplaces, steam and hot water pipes, tiles, vermiculite, and air heating conducts.
