Unfortunately if you live in Merrimack County or Hillsborough County and you don’t have an RO filter on your incoming well water; you really oughta think about getting one. Or else drink spring water from a protected aquifer.

Buying a house with a well in Hillsborough County and the water test came back with no issues whatsoever; everything was either incredibly low and the really bad stuff was not detected. It’s also very soft water, which will be something new for us as everywhere we’ve lived across the country and overseas had varying levels of hard water, to include Arizona where I swear the water came out of the tap as mineralized chunks with some water embedded in them (exaggeration, but not by much!). We’re still planning on putting an RO filter on it as an extra safety measure just to avoid any potential issues.
It’s been recommended by everyone (the water testing company was silent on the issue) that we still get our water tested annually even though our test came back with the same results as the current owner’s test in 2016.

Just making sure you (or other people reading this) already know this — PFAS/PFOA is not tested for in a standard water test, it’s a separate (ofc more expensive) test.
