Water Test Kit

Water-Test-Kit-49th-Ward-Chicago-Alderwo

If you are concerned about the potential of elevated lead levels in your home’s water, you may wish to have your water tested.

​

The test kit consists of three bottles, a mailing box, and instructions. Follow the instructions included in your kit for collecting water samples in your home, put the bottles in the shipping box and place it in a location (such as the entryway or front door) for pick up by Department of Water Management (DWM) staff.

​

If you would prefer to schedule a time for a DWM representative to come to your home to take water samples, keep in mind that this appointment must be scheduled for a time when you are home and you have not used your water for over 6 hours. Please call 311 or fill out the form online and a representative will reach out to you to schedule a visit.

​

More information on water test kits is available on the Department of Water Management’s website.
