What fixes it: Whole House Carbon Filters

City water usually needs carbon for chlorine and disinfection byproducts, often with a softener and point-of-use RO.

Aidan Personally Reviews Every Result

When your independent lab report comes back, it goes to Aidan, one of our owners and a water treatment specialist with over 30 years of hands-on experience. Because the testing is done by a third-party lab, the data is impartial. He reads your numbers, knows what matters for 109 contaminants, and gives you a clear recommendation for your situation.

You Get a Clear, Specific Recommendation

  • → Whether this contaminant needs treatment, and how urgently
  • → The exact equipment and size for your home, if any is needed
  • → The correct installation order alongside anything else you treat
  • → Estimated cost and what maintenance to expect

If Your Water Tests Clean, We Tell You That

We would rather earn your trust by being honest than sell you equipment you do not need. If your result comes back within safe limits, Aidan will tell you exactly that. No upselling, no fear tactics.


Everything Your Utility Report Leaves Out: 109 Contaminants.

Lead, VOCs, disinfection byproducts, pesticides, and 25 metals analyzed at an independent certified lab, plus a complete treatment plan from a 30-year water expert.

Your city's annual report describes water at the treatment plant, covers a limited regulated list, and tells you nothing about what happens between the plant and your faucet. This panel goes far deeper: 109 parameters at an independent, NELAC/ELAP-accredited lab, including lead and copper from your own plumbing, 44 VOCs, 7 petroleum compounds, the trihalomethane disinfection byproducts of chlorination, two soil fumigants, and a 25-metal list, plus hardness, pH, and fluoride. Bacteria is intentionally excluded because municipal water is already disinfected and monitored. What remains is everything that can change at your tap or that the utility simply does not report. Aidan reviews the full report and recommends exactly what your city water needs, usually carbon for chlorine and disinfection byproducts, a softener if hardness is high, and point-of-use reverse osmosis for drinking, all sized to your home. If your water is clean, he will tell you.

Frequently Asked Questions

The standard City Water Test covers 47 contaminants, the core set municipal customers need: lead, copper, hardness, fluoride, metals, and key chemistry. The Advanced panel reaches 109 by adding 44 VOCs, 7 petroleum compounds, the trihalomethane disinfection byproducts of chlorination, two soil fumigants, and a deeper metals list. Choose Advanced when you want the most thorough possible read or have a specific industrial or disinfection-byproduct concern.

Municipal water is disinfected and continuously monitored for bacteria by your utility, and any contamination triggers a public boil-water notice. Adding a bacteria panel to a city kit would inflate the price for a result that is essentially always negative. If you are on a private well instead, the Advanced Well Water Test adds the full coliform and E. coli panel.

For most municipal customers, the standard City Water Test answers the important questions (lead, copper, hardness, fluoride) at a better value. Step up to Advanced for the deepest picture: older homes with lead risk, areas with industrial history, disinfection-byproduct concerns, or planning whole-house treatment from a complete baseline. Call Aidan if you are unsure which fits.

Aidan reviews your full 109-parameter report and recommends exactly what your city water needs: typically carbon for chlorine and disinfection byproducts, a softener if hardness is high, and point-of-use reverse osmosis for drinking water, sized to your home. If your water is clean, he will tell you that too.

Absolutely. Call 800-460-5810 or text Aidan at 443-277-2204. He is available 7 days a week. If you are not sure whether you need this test, he can help you figure that out in a few minutes. No sales pitch, just straight answers. You can also email support@midatlanticwater.net.

The Cost of Guessing Wrong

A focused lab test vs thousands in wrong equipment.

What happens when you skip the test

Without a lab number, you are guessing. We have seen it hundreds of times: a homeowner buys the wrong system, or the wrong size, because staining or smell or scale looked a certain way. Wrong equipment means wasted money, an unsolved problem, and an eventual second purchase.

A focused lab test tells you exactly what is in your water so you buy the right equipment the first time. It is not a cost. It is insurance against a much larger mistake.

The Real Comparison

Guessing (No Test)
$1,000-$3,000
  • ❌ Lifespan: Fails in 3-4 years
  • ❌ Result: Frequent repairs, poor water quality, leaks
  • ❌ Support: None
Wrong or mis-sized equipment
Best Long-Term Value
Test First, Then Buy Right
$279
  • ✅ Lifespan: Lasts 15+ years with routine media replacement
  • ✅ Result: Done right the first time, peace of mind
  • ✅ Support: Lifetime USA Support
Right equipment the first time

The test costs a small fraction of a single piece of water treatment equipment. If it keeps you from buying the wrong system even once, it has paid for itself many times over.

What this test gets you

A certified-lab measurement of 109 contaminants using EPA 200.7/200.8 (metals), 300.0 (inorganics), 524.2 (VOCs + disinfection byproducts), plus a personal recommendation from a 30-year water treatment expert. The exact number you need to make the right decision, done right the first time.

Accuracy Guarantee

Independent Certified Lab · EPA 200.7/200.8 (metals), 300.0 (inorganics), 524.2 (VOCs + disinfection byproducts)

The Guarantee: Your sample is analyzed by an independent, NELAC/ELAP-accredited lab using validated methods. If your kit does not arrive or arrives damaged, the lab loses your sample, or your results take longer than 10 business days after the lab receives your sample, we will send a replacement kit at no charge or issue a full refund.

30+ YEARS EXPERIENCE
10,000+ HOMES HELPED

Your test is processed by a third-party certified lab in the SimpleLab network, independently accredited under NELAC/ELAP standards. We never touch the testing. The lab runs validated, EPA-standard methods to produce results you can trust. Then Aidan reviews your numbers and tells you exactly what they mean.

Why Hardware-Store Test Strips Can't Compare +

Hardware-store test strips test a handful of parameters with color-changing pads you match against a chart. They cannot detect contaminants at the low levels that matter for health, and they miss critical analytes entirely.

Our test uses the same certified-lab method state and federal drinking-water programs use: EPA 200.7/200.8 (metals), 300.0 (inorganics), 524.2 (VOCs + disinfection byproducts). The difference between a strip and a certified lab is the difference between guessing and knowing.

Solved my very high iron issues

"I had well water with over 20 ppm ferrous and 7 ppm of ferric iron, plus manganese and some sulfur. Local water companies rejected me, said they couldn't help. I purchased two Fleck 2.5 cu. ft. 2510AIO iron filter tanks with Katalox-Light. Problem solved."

Corrosive water resolved

"New house, brass fittings on my Pex were all corroding. Tested the water, acidic at 5.5. Found Mid Atlantic Water YouTube videos which were very helpful, ordered the non-back washing 2.5. Easy install, water tests great now."

Amazing set up

"Straight forward installation. In, out, and the drain. Ran a back wash cycle then put it online and it works GREAT. Cleaned out the iron and raised the pH to 7.5. Culligan tried to sell me something twice the price."

Outstanding help and products

"Three contractors and two other suppliers reviewed my well report. Quotes ranged from $5,000 to $10,000. Then I found Mid Atlantic. Aidan reviewed the report and recommended a complete system. Same equipment, fraction of the cost, and the support was real."

Does exactly what it's supposed to do

"Easy, bullet-proof installation. No moving parts. Raised my pH from 6.8 to a perfect 7.6. I had previously installed the same unit in my daughter's water system. Her pH was 5.2. Following Aidan's videos, both installs went smoothly."

"Super easy install. Shouldn't have to service it for approximately 24-36 months based on my water usage. Tank is solid, fittings are clean, no leaks. Exactly what was advertised."
