DNA-based metagenomic testing for the microbes living in your home’s water and fixtures — with simple, at‑home sampling and clear, actionable results.
Headquartered in Socorro, New Mexico.
Tap water and household plumbing can harbor microbial residues and biofilms that may include pathogens. Utility testing focuses on source water and distribution — not what happens inside your home between the curb stop and your faucet or showerhead.
A homeowner-friendly kit with a capsule filter for water collection and a sterile swab for fixture deposits. Samples are returned to our lab for DNA extraction, metagenomic sequencing, and cloud‑based analytics. You receive an easy‑to‑read report highlighting notable microbes and potential pathogens.
Use the capsule filter for water and the sterile swab for your faucet or showerhead.
Ship both samples in the prepaid container.
We backflush, suspend and extract DNA from your samples.
Shotgun metagenomics identifies microbes and viruses present.
You receive an easy-to-read report with insights for cleaning and maintenance.
Launch pricing for early customers. Choose one-time testing or subscribe for ongoing monitoring.
Quarterly testing to track changes and keep your water healthy.
Bulk & institutional pricing available upon request.
