Our accredited laboratory offers comprehensive drinking water analyses based on current legislation. The analyses comply with the requirements of Decree No. 252/2004 Coll., as amended. This decree sets out the hygiene requirements for drinking and hot water and the frequency and scope of drinking water inspections.We offer both the standard ranges specified by the decree and the option of individual selection of specific indicatorsaccording to customer requirements. The laboratory provides accredited drinking water sampling. Upon agreement and collection of special sampling containers, the customer can also perform the sampling themselves.

Reduced analysis is used to verify the quality of drinking water sources, approve private buildings, and monitor water in commercial buildings. It provides information on key microbiological, physicochemical, and organoleptic indicators specified in Decree 252/2004 Coll., Annex 5.1.

The purpose of a complete analysis is to comprehensively analyze all indicators specified in Decree No. 252/2004 Coll., Annex 5.2. It is required by the relevant authorities, especially for commercial entities with an individual source of drinking water.

Individually selected indicators based on customer requirements and needs.  TUL package (determination of Escherichia coli, coliform bacteria, Clostridium perfringens, colony counts at 36°C and 22°C, nitrates, nitrites, ammonium ions, chlorides, TOC, Fe, hardness (Ca + Mg content), pH, conductivity) provides basic information about microbial contamination and the chemical composition of water.

We offer wastewater analysis to individuals who own, for example, domestic wastewater treatment plants, based on a decision issued by the relevant water authority. The scope of parameters determined for domestic wastewater treatment plants for the discharge of wastewater into groundwater according to Act No. 254/2001 Coll. on Water („Water Act“) §8(1)(c) is most often: BOD5, CODCr, undissolved substances, total phosphorus, ammoniacal nitrogen. Wastewater samples from domestic wastewater treatment plants are taken by the customer themselves according to the instructions specified in the Decision.
