Copper in drinking water usually results from the corrosion of household plumbing systems. It causes blue-green stains on fixtures.
We measure the total copper concentration in the water sample.
The EPA has set an Action Level of 1.3 mg/L for copper. Short-term exposure above this level can cause gastrointestinal distress, and long-term exposure can cause liver or kidney damage.
When you pick up your pre-sterilized collection bottles from our lab drop-off window, we will provide a clear, step-by-step instruction sheet for gathering your water sample. All you need to know right now is that samples must be kept chilled on wet ice or ice packs and delivered back to our lab window within 24 hours of collection to ensure accurate results.
