We understand that the safety and quality of drinking water is of utmost importance to our health and well-being.
As a State of Michigan certified drinking water laboratory, Trace can perform a wide array of analyses to address concerns and meet compliance needs. Our mission is to make it quick and easy for our clients to have their drinking water analyzed. Sample collection containers for routine analyses can be picked up at Trace during normal business hours without an appointment.
Trace offers drinking water analyses ranging from the basic total coliform bacteria to the very complex analysis for Synthetic Organic Compounds. Drinking water metals analysis is a common concern amongst municipalities, schools, homes, and daycares. Trace provides Lead and Copper data to many clients throughout the State of Michigan. For a detailed list of Drinking Water certifications and analyses, please contact us or see our Certifications page.
For municipalities, Trace offers a variety of other regulated tests, including TOC, SUVA, free and available cyanide, disinfectant by-products, and synthetic organic compounds (SOCs).
To be your one stop shop, we work with PFAS and radiological subcontract laboratories to supply containers and facilitate analysis to ease the burden of coordinating with multiple labs. Third party sample collection is available at an additional rate and must be scheduled with a Project Manager.
Standard turnaround time for drinking water samples is 7-10 business days (excluding subcontract work). Rush or expedited turnaround times are available for an additional fee.
Please see our downloads and resources page for sampling instructions.
If there are further questions or concerns regarding drinking water, please contact one of our Project Managers at 1-231-773-5998.
Additional options are available for homeowners who are not in need of certified results, but seeking a more in-depth understanding of their home drinking water. Please see our store for information on our home drinking water test kits.
