State-Certified Water Analysis for Homeowners
At Franklin County Lab, we view home water quality as essential for health and property. Since 1992, we’ve helped homeowners in Union, the St. Louis Metro, and Franklin County with state-certified drinking water testing for private wells. Using approved methods for Total Coliform and E. coli, we ensure reliable results. If your water is safe, no treatment is necessary; if there’s a risk, we offer guidance on certified disinfection and filtration solutions.
