Description

The kit is designed to provide a simple, affordable and
safe method of performing basic water quality tests.
The written material applies to the testing of surface
water from rivers and dams, however some of the
tests can be done on ground water too. The test for
residual chlorine applies to treated water only. The kit
contains enough equipment to enable most of the
chemical tests to be conducted on ten different water
samples. Armed with the results of the various tests
you complete, you should be able to safely conclude
whether the water you are testing is in a good, fair or
bad condition. You should then be able to make some
recommendation or determine appropriate actions to
improve not only the quality of the water, but also the
lives and living conditions of the people who depend
on this natural resource. Your samples will require
confirmatory testing at a recognised reference centre.
Results generated with this kit are to be used as a
rough qualitative guide only and are for educational
purposes only.
