Free Microbial Testing Program
Worried about bacteria in your well or home water? Bring a sample to our Kennewick shop and we will test it for total coliform in our own lab, at no charge. Microbial testing is a drop-off service; we do not collect bacteria samples at your home.
- Drop off your sample at 4819 W Clearwater Ave, Kennewick, Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
- We incubate it for 48 hours alongside a bacteria-free control sample.
- Read the result. Purple means no total coliform was detected. Yellow means coliform is present and we will recommend treatment, such as UV disinfection.
Purple = no coliform detected. Yellow = coliform present.Total Water Wellness

We just had installed a very elaborate filtration system for our well water. Matt was very knowledgeable and did an excellent job with the installation. Our water tastes fabulous!
Marcy Roop
The soft water system installed and maintained by Soft Water Specialists has been working great resulting in no hard water deposits on shower/fixtures. The staff is courteous and prompt with routine preventive maintenance and inspections.
John Geuther
Incredible professionalism and a great installation experience. Pricing was great and I can’t even think of the words good enough to recommend Chris and Soft Water Specialists. We are extremely pleased with our purchase. If you’re contemplating a water softener and/or filtration system we highly recommend them.
