5 Reasons to Test Your Home's Water Quality in Seattle
Seattle water quality concerns vary by neighborhood and season, making regular testing a smart investment for local homeowners.
- Detect lead contamination from aging neighborhood pipes. Many Seattle homes were built before 1980, with older service lines and plumbing that may leach lead into your drinking water supply.
- Beyond aging infrastructure, address corrosion from naturally soft water. Seattle's soft water from the Cedar and Tolt Rivers can corrode copper pipes and fixtures, potentially introducing metals into your water and causing costly pipe repairs over time.
- Seattle's environment also presents seasonal contamination risks from Pacific Northwest runoff. Heavy rainfall during Seattle's wet months can introduce bacteria, sediment, and other contaminants that affect both municipal water systems and private wells throughout the region.
- Additionally, eliminate persistent chlorine taste and odor concerns. Seattle Public Utilities uses chlorine for water treatment, which can create unpleasant tastes and smells that affect your family's drinking water enjoyment and cooking results.
- Most importantly, prevent bacterial growth after major storm events. Seattle's frequent heavy rains can impact both city water treatment processes and private well systems, introducing harmful bacteria that regular testing helps identify before health risks develop.
