Test your well, protect your health!
Well water testing and treatment are the best ways to reduce your exposure and risk of health effects from PFAS and other common well contaminants. Getting your well tested is the first step in determining your well water quality. Many water filters are highly effective at removing PFAS and other common well water contaminants. The PFAS Testing and Assistance Program (PFAS TAP) provides access to both.
Colorado residents with a private well can apply for free PFAS testing, and eligible participants can receive free filters that meet NSF standards for removing PFAS and other common well contaminants from drinking water. Testing helps us identify and minimize exposure to PFAS in the area, and develop recommendations on PFAS contamination. This program is available while supplies last.
