Municipal water · Baseline testing

City Basic

Auraven Labs professional residential water testing kit

A focused residential water test for homeowners who want a clear baseline of their municipal water quality, including metals, minerals, general water chemistry, and other commonly evaluated drinking-water parameters.

Auraven collects the samples at your home, coordinates independent laboratory analysis, and delivers the results through your Auraven Water Profile.

Who it is for

A practical starting point for city water.

City Basic is designed for homeowners on municipal water who want a broad baseline without moving into the larger organic-chemical panel included in City Advanced.

Metals

Evaluates metals including lead, arsenic, copper, iron, manganese, uranium, and other elements that may affect health, plumbing, staining, taste, or overall water quality.

Minerals and hardness

Measures major minerals and water-hardness characteristics that help explain scale buildup, mineral deposits, taste, and how water interacts with household plumbing.

General water chemistry

Includes parameters such as pH, nitrate, fluoride, sulfate, chloride, alkalinity, and total dissolved solids.

Your Auraven Water Profile

Your laboratory results are organized into a clear digital profile designed to help you understand what was tested, what was found, and what may deserve additional attention.
