Public Health Offers Free Private Well Testing for “Forever Chemicals”
Public Health Madison & Dane County is providing free PFAS water testing for income eligible homeowners with private wells in Dane County. Eligibility for free testing is based on income and the number of people in the household. If you are not eligible for free testing, paid testing is also available at a lower price than many other labs typically offer.
​
PFAS chemicals are common in our environment. Also known as “forever chemicals,” PFAS do not change or break down easily. Exposure can happen through the air, soil, and even drinking water.
