Water quality testing

Water quality testing include determination of activity of ²²²Rn, ²²⁶Ra, ²²⁸Ra and uranium. All analyses are performed in framework of individual contract.
Sample delivery should be announced by phone above mentioned.
Sample volume for analysis is 6-8 l.
Water should be sampled after 15-20 water flow run.
Only hermetical bottles could be used for water sampling.
Sample should be delivered not later than in 2-3 days after sampling.
Radiochemical analyses of water require 10-15 working days.

To analyze complicate water source which contain more than one drilled well one complete set of analyses should be performed for averaged sample. Each individual sample require radon-222 analyze. For that purposes bottle of 0,5 l should be used.

Each sample should be followed with corresponding information:
Well depth,
Well debit,
To whom it belong (name and address).
How many peoples utilized water?
