Why Water Testing Matters in Boulder
Boulder has excellent municipal water treatment, but private wells, aging plumbing, and natural mineral content can still create risks. Water testing is especially important for:
- Homes with private or shared wells
- Older properties with copper or galvanized pipes
- Homes near agricultural zones or runoff areas
- Buyers under VA, FHA, or USDA financing that require testing
