Professional laboratory water testing: identify abnormal values and concentrations
The Water Analysis PREMIUM provides total assurance that your drinking water is safe. In just a few simple steps, samples taken from your own tap are professionally examined by an accredited laboratory. This analysis combines the Water Analysis PLUS, an extensive bacterial examination, with the analysis for legionella, giving you a complete picture of your water quality. The values tested offer a clear overview of potential abnormalities.
How is the Water Analysis PREMIUM carried out?
After placing your order, your test kit is dispatched within 24 hours. It contains everything that you need to take the sample, incl. detailed instructions, ice packs and a free return label. No specialist knowledge is needed. If you need help, you can call the IVARIO drinking water experts for free.
Simply arrange for your sample to be collected by our courier service at the time of your choice, and your sample will be transported to the lab within 24 hours. This service is included in the price and is essential because the results of the microbiological tests could be skewed if the transport time is too long and the temperature too high. In the water testing laboratory, the examination of your samples begins straight away.

Have your water analysis done by professionals
The Premium Water Analysis gives consumers of tap water and those responsible for the water the knowledge that it is perfectly safe to drink. Thanks to the Water Supply Regulations, the drinking water distributed to households by suppliers is very clean. However, the real danger is lurking in the pipes at home, and it often goes unnoticed. This is because the responsibility for maintaining water quality passes from the water suppliers to the property owner, normally at the water meter. Old pipes, lead pipes, improper maintenance: a range of factors can cause a huge amount of damage, and ultimately this manifests itself in the health of the consumer.
Heavy metals such as lead and nickel put the health of the consumer at risk, as well as various bacteria that can make showering and cleaning a source of infection. The cause can lie in both domestic pipes and in water filters or fittings. The Water Analysis PREMIUM provides maximum protection because it checks for all the important toxic heavy metals that can be released from the pipes and enter the water. In addition to this, harmful bacteria like legionella can be detected.
Gut problems, colds and much more can be caused by bacteria in drinking water. Children are particularly susceptible to heavy metals like lead or copper, but adult consumers are at risk too. A link between these problems and a contamination of the home water supply is often identified far too late, or not at all.
Water testing for bacteria and heavy metals: important for those with allergies and weak immune systems
Comprehensive tap water testing for consumers is recommended by experts if contamination is suspected, but is also recommended as a preventative measure. The quality of UK drinking water is undeniably high, but this does not mean it is completely safe. Home water installations and filter systems can become problematic. To effectively counteract problems, abnormal values need to be uncovered and the cause eliminated as quickly as possible. The Water Analysis PREMIUM tests for all the important contaminants. In addition to easy sample collection and a highly professional analysis, an understandable breakdown of the test results and free expert advice are provided.
Who is the Water Analysis PREMIUM suitable for?
The Water Analysis PREMIUM is intended for anyone who wants or needs to be absolutely certain that their tap water is safe.
