YourWaterReport.com exists because private well owners deserve the same access to local water quality data that public water customers take for granted. About 43 million Americans get their drinking water from private wells — and almost none of them have easy access to actionable, local, contaminant-specific data.
The problem we're solving
Public water systems are required to test regularly and publish annual Consumer Confidence Reports. Private well owners have no such safety net. Federal and state groundwater databases contain millions of monitoring records — but they're buried in government portals designed for researchers, not homeowners.
We built YourWaterReport to bridge that gap: take the data that's already publicly available, aggregate it by county, match it to what's known about local geology and contamination patterns, and present it in a way that's actually useful to a well owner deciding what to test for.
Our data
All contaminant data comes from publicly available government databases — primarily the EPA Water Quality Portal, USGS NWIS, and CDC tracking programs. We don't generate our own data, and we don't accept payment to modify how we present it. See our Data Sources and Methodology pages for full details.
What we are not
YourWaterReport is not a water testing lab, not a water treatment company, and not a government agency. We're an independent information resource. Our testing recommendations include affiliate links to testing services — that's how we cover operating costs — but the recommendations are based solely on local data, not commercial relationships.
