Comprehensive Water Laboratory Analysis Kit

We utilize a multi-method approach to ensure every contaminant is caught at the lowest possible detection limits:

• ICP-MS (Method EPA 200.8): For Heavy Metals. Uses plasma ionization to detect metallic elements at parts per trillion.

• GC-MS (Method EPA 8260): For VOCs. The industry standard for identifying organic chemical fingerprints with 100% certainty.

• Colorimetric Analysis (Method EPA 353.2): For Nitrites. A precise automated method to determine nitrogen levels, critical for well-water safety

Nitrites are highly unstable and often indicate recent contamination from sewage or fertilizers. Because they can interfere with the blood's ability to carry oxygen, testing for them—and preserving the sample with our included cooling pack—is essential for households with infants or pregnant women.

What’s Inside the Kit?

• Certified HDPE Bottles: For heavy metal collection.

• Air-Tight Glass Vials: For VOC collection.

• Preservation Gear: Cooling gel pack and insulated shipping mailer.

• Step-by-Step Instructions: Including the "Positive Meniscus" technique for bubble-free VOC sampling.

• Prepaid Shipping Label: Fast, priority transit to our EPA-verified lab.

• Certified Report: Professional data with full result interpretation.

Understanding the Results

Once our EPA-verified lab completes the analysis, you won't be left staring at a confusing data sheet. Your report includes a Result Interpretation Guide that compares your levels against the EPA's Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs).

We help you understand:

• Action Levels: Does your water exceed safety thresholds?

• Aesthetic Issues: Is the mineral content causing your staining or taste problems?

Next Steps: We provide clear guidance on what type of filtration or mitigation may be necessary based on your specific chemical profile.

1. Collect: Follow the specialized guide to fill your PFAS-free tubes (e.g., avoid wearing waterproof gear while sampling).

2. Chill & Ship: Place the tubes in the mailer with the frozen gel pack.

3. Analyze: Our lab runs the LC-MS/MS protocol to detect trace levels.

4. Review: Receive your digital results with a breakdown of what they mean for your home.

Sacred Sampling Solutions provides professionally prepared sampling kits designed to bring laboratory-grade environmental testing into the home.

Each kit is assembled using cleaned, certified sampling containers and documented materials to help preserve sample integrity from collection through laboratory analysis. Every shipment includes step-by-step collection instructions, chain-of-custody documentation, protective packaging, and a pre-addressed return shipping label for secure delivery to our laboratory.

Orders are typically processed within 1–2 business days, and most customers receive their kit within 3–5 business days depending on location.

Once your sample is collected, simply seal the containers, complete the included chain-of-custody form, and return the package using the provided shipping label.

Upon arrival at the laboratory, samples are logged into the laboratory information system and prepared for instrument-based analytical testing using certified laboratory methods. Most results are available within 5–10 business days after the laboratory receives your sample.

Sacred Sampling Solutions currently ships sampling kits within the United States.

Because when it comes to your water and environment, clarity should be measured — not assumed.

To ensure accurate laboratory results, samples must be collected according to the provided instructions and procedures.

If a sample is collected incorrectly — including but not limited to:

• Using containers improperly

• Collecting the wrong sample type

• Contaminating the sample

• Failing to complete required documentation

• Failing to follow shipping instructions

The laboratory may be unable to perform testing or guarantee accurate results.

Sacred Sampling Solutions is not responsible for samples that cannot be analyzed due to improper collection procedures, and refunds may not be available once a sample has been collected or submitted.
