Flexible Testing Services by AquaTest Wales
AquaTest Wales are proud to have our own in-house Chemist who, having both worked in and run laboratories, is considered world-class in the field of ‘wet chemistry’. Our Chemist is well versed in heavy industrial fields such as Oil, Gas and Energy sectors, but also environmental laboratory operations and method development.
Whether you have an industrial boiler needing testing, or you have concerns about your water supply, we would be happy to arrange a visit from the Chemist to create a flexible, tailor-made service package, or perform a series of tests to put your mind at ease.
Private Water Supplies
We can complete the testing on your private supply, in accordance with the Private Water Supplies (Wales) Regulations 2017. This testing includes the water chemistry & UKAS accredited microbiology, and comes with our detailed report as standard. We also include recommendations on how to improve the water quality. We can also test the performance of your 'treatment plant' to help you determine the correct service interval.

AquaTest Wales have a large range of testing capabilities and use only Laboratory grade equipment in order to provide you with the most accurate available results of any mobile analysis service. We use industry recognised test methods and our expert level of Laboratory knowledge to ensure you receive unrivalled value for money.
Industrial Water Testing
Our Chemist is well versed in the testing of industrial boilers, water treatment plants and cooling towers, with an expert level of knowledge in their chemical treatment. Whether you are looking for regular service testing, or a one-off confirmatory test as part of your quality control, we can work with you to achieve your goals.
Chemist For Hire
A unique service provided only by AquaTest Wales. If you have water systems requiring ongoing sampling, analysis and monitoring at your business location, we can arrange a meeting to discuss how our Chemist can support you.

Hybrid UKAS Accredited & Lab-based Testing
At AquaTest Wales you will only ever receive high quality testing.

We often complete hybrid testing, which is a blend of UKAS accredited testing and unaccredited testing, but always to the highest standard.
