Water testing FAQs in Jacksonville
What does Culligan's free water test in Jacksonville check for?
Our in-home test measures hardness, chlorine, total dissolved solids, pH and iron on the spot, with results in about 20 minutes. For JEA customers that usually means confirming hardness somewhere in the 7-to-22-gpg range and a chlorine reading near 1 ppm; for well owners it's often iron and sulfur. If you want contaminants like lead, nitrate, arsenic or PFAS checked, we send a sample to a certified lab. There's no charge for the in-home test and no obligation.
Where can I get well water tested near me in Jacksonville?
Culligan of Jacksonville tests private wells throughout Duval, Clay, Nassau and St. Johns counties, including well-heavy areas like Middleburg, Callahan, Hilliard and the rural west side. Our free in-home test covers hardness, iron, sulfur, pH and TDS; lab testing adds bacteria, nitrate and arsenic. The Florida Department of Health's Duval County office also offers well-testing kits. We'll explain the results and what, if anything, needs treating.
How often should I test my water in Jacksonville?
On JEA water, once when you move in and again whenever taste, odor or staining changes — and after a boil-water notice like the March 2026 event, it's worth confirming nothing lingered in your plumbing. Private wells should be tested every year for bacteria and nitrate, and after any flooding or nearby construction. Existing Culligan customers get a free retest at service visits.
Is a lab water test worth it in Jacksonville?
If you're on a private well, yes — nobody else is testing it, and bacteria and nitrate don't show up in a field test. For JEA customers, a lab test makes sense if you have an older home with original plumbing (lead and copper), live near NAS Jacksonville or Cecil Field (PFAS), or want numbers before choosing a filtration system. We'll tell you honestly whether the free test is enough for your situation.
What's in Jacksonville's tap water according to JEA's report?
JEA's latest Consumer Confidence Report shows hardness of 7 to 22 gpg, chlorine and fluoride each around 1.06 ppm, TTHMs at about 71 ppb, lead at 1.5 ppb (90th percentile), and chloride and TDS above the EPA's secondary limits at 319 and 876 ppm. All regulated contaminants were within primary limits for the year. The report covers the system average, not your tap — a home test shows what actually comes out of your faucet.
