PFAS (“forever chemicals”) testing for private wells

PFAS are a large family of industrial chemicals that can reach groundwater. You cannot taste or smell them. Testing needs a lab that runs an appropriate drinking-water PFAS method — not a basic bacteria strip.

What to ask the lab

Public price ranges change often. We do not invent prices — call the lab for a quote. Affiliate links are not live on this site yet.

Where to start

Ask your state-certified lab for Method 533 / 537.1 / 1633

PFAS panels vary by lab and method. Start with your state's certified drinking-water lab list, then ask which EPA methods they run for private well samples and the current price for a 29-compound (or similar) panel.

After you get results

Read our plain-language guide and talk to your health department about next steps. Treatment for PFAS (when needed) often means certified granular activated carbon or reverse osmosis at the tap — confirm with a professional and retest.
