The Ministry of Education needs accredited testing that complies with the Canadian Drinking Water Guidelines
Order Online! Yes, it’s that easy! You can order lead testing through our online store here, and we will process and deliver your sampling supplies right to your door or you can come to pick them up in person at a CARO location in BC, Alberta or the Yukon.
This is at your discretion, along with your advising health authority.
It is recommended that all separate drinking water sources be tested (water fountains and lunchroom taps). One sample should be collected before flushing the water (running the tap for at least two minutes) and another separate sample collected after flushing.
This per sample price includes:
– A sterile sampling container and a cooler for shipment back to CARO
– Accredited analysis of a sample for lead
– An emailed report detailing the test results
According to The Star, unsafe levels of lead were found in 25% of the B.C schools that reported test results this year. Make sure this isn’t you!
If you’re ordering multiple tests or will be ordering many from us in the future, you may be eligible for our commercial discount specifically for schools!
