Thank you that we got our Berkey in time. We don't know if you have heard what is going on here in Australia, but we don't have to worry about our drinking water. We are so safe.
Kind regards, Ralph S

    • WaterSafe WS-425W Lead / Pesticide Test Instructions:


    • The Watersafe Lead Test can detect dissolved lead at levels below the EPA Action level of 15 parts per billion (ppb). The Watersafe Pesticide Test detects two of the most common pesticides used in the US at or below the EPA Maximum Contaminant Level (atrazine - 3 ppb, and simazine - 4 ppb).

To pick up the sample, tightly squeeze the bulb at the end of the dropper and place the open end into the water sample. Release the bulb to pick up the sample, then squeeze again to expel the sample into the vial.


    • 3. Swirl vial gently for several seconds. Place on a flat surface.


    • 4. Place both test strips into the test vial, with arrows pointing DOWN.

    • 6. Take the strips out of the vial and lay them on a flat surface with the arrows pointing to the LEFT. Read Results.


    • If you only see the LEFT line (next to number 1), the test is negative)
    • Negative: The LEFT line (next to number 1) is darker than the RIGHT line (next to number 2)

    • negative pesticide test


    • Positive: The RIGHT line (next to number 2) is darker than the LEFT line (next to number 1), or lines are equally dark (Both LEFT and RIGHT lines are equally dark)

    • negative pesticide test


    • 7. Note: If no lines appear, or both lines are very light, the test did not run properly and the result is not valid.
    • If a test strip shows a positive result, your water sample may contain lead or pesticides at a toxic level.
