Water Testing
Private Well Water Testing Program
This program makes well water testing more cost- effective. Tests kits are purchased during a one-week period. The water samples are taken on a designated date and returned to the District. Samples are shipped to the lab as a group. Results are sent directly to participants and are confidential.
The 2026 Spring Well Water Testing was held March 9th.

The PrivateWellClass.org program serves well users and professionals across the United States, on tribal lands, and in the U.S. territories, but our roots are local. As the only state with a Water Survey, our Illinois-based program leans on 130 years of expertise in applied science and outreach. PrivateWellClass.org exists because of the unique legacy and positioning of the Illinois State Water Survey.
