Message Subject What would make boiled water bitter?

Post Content
I found a place today to test my water. I did not plan on telling them I was going to boil one of the samples but I did tell them I have two samples to be tested.

Here is a list of what they said they will test:
Asbestos
Aluminum
Chloride
Chlorine
Chloramines
Color
Free Ammonia as Nitrogen
Fluoride
Hardness
Iron
Manganese
Nitrate as Nitrogen
pH
Phosphorus
Sodium
Sulfate
Total Dissolved Solids
Total Organic Carbon
Turbidity
Zinc
Total Coliform
E.Coli
Trihalomethanes
Haloacetic Acids
Led
Copper

Does this sound about right? Are they missing anything?

That's a lot, more than you really need I would say, but better too much than not enough. The one thing you've overlooked is radioactivity, either a gross alpha/beta test or at least uranium.

I'm in the business, so I have nosy questions you don't have to answer, but here goes:

How much are you paying for all that?

Is the lab certified to test drinking water for all those things?
