Find Out What's in Your Water with a Free Water Test
Most homeowners don't know what's in their water until they begin to notice the effects: hard water can leave mineral deposits on fixtures, chlorine may affect the taste and odor of drinking water, and some water quality issues aren't obvious without testing.
Aqua Shield NM offers free in-home water testing for homeowners throughout central and northern New Mexico. During your appointment, we'll test your water, explain the results, and answer your questions. If treatment makes sense, we'll walk through your options. If it doesn't, you'll still leave knowing more about your home's water.
What Happens During Your Free In-Home Water Test
When you schedule a free water test, Aqua Shield NM sends a trained water specialist to your home to evaluate your water and walk you through the results. Everything is completed during the visit, so you'll know what was found before the appointment is over.
The testing looks for common water quality concerns found throughout central and northern New Mexico, including hard water, chlorine, and other conditions that may be affecting your home's water. As each test is completed, your specialist will explain what it measures, what the results mean, and answer any questions along the way.
If the testing uncovers a water quality issue, we'll explain the treatment options that fit your home's needs. If everything looks good, you'll simply have a better understanding of the water your family uses every day.
What Your Water May Be Telling You
Hard water is one of the most common water quality concerns across central and northern New Mexico, but it's not the only one. Depending on where you live and whether your home uses municipal or well water, you may also experience chlorine, sediment, or other water quality issues. A free in-home water test identifies what's in your water and helps determine whether treatment is recommended.
Our water test can identify concerns such as:
Mineral Buildup: Calcium and magnesium deposits that collect on fixtures, inside pipes, and in water-using appliances, reducing efficiency over time.
Chlorine Taste and Odor: Residual chlorine used to disinfect municipal water can affect the taste and smell of drinking water.
Skin and Hair Feel: Hard water may leave skin feeling dry and hair more difficult to manage.
Laundry Appearance: Mineral-rich water that can leave fabrics feeling stiff, faded, or less vibrant over time.
Potential Contaminants: Depending on your water source, concerns such as sediment or PFOA/PFOS compounds may warrant additional evaluation.
Water quality problems can range from minor nuisances to issues that affect your plumbing, appliances, and everyday water use. Testing helps determine what's present so you can decide whether treatment is right for your home.
Water Treatment Solutions After the Test
If your water test uncovers hard water, chlorine, or another water quality concern, the next step is choosing a solution that addresses the problem. Aqua Shield NM installs RainSoft water treatment systems for a wide range of household water issues, and we'll recommend a system based on your test results—not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Available options include:
Whole-Home Water Conditioning: The EC5 Water Conditioner targets hardness minerals using ion-exchange technology and offers wireless monitoring via the RainSoft Remind app.
Whole-Home Carbon Filtration: The QRS Whole-Home Carbon Filtration system removes chlorine taste and odor, as well as volatile organic compounds, from every tap.
Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water: The Ultrefiner II provides point-of-use reverse osmosis filtration for the kitchen sink.
PFOA/PFOS Filtration: The Ultreflo Protect addresses per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances that standard filtration doesn't catch.
Pressure Regulation: The HydroStart pressure-reducing valve protects plumbing and appliances from high water pressure.
Not every home needs the same type of treatment. Some homeowners benefit from a single system, while others see better results by combining multiple products. We'll explain your options, answer your questions, and help you choose a solution that fits your home's water conditions. For a complete overview, the full products page covers each option in detail. Aqua Shield NM also offers air purification solutions for homeowners interested in indoor air quality.

Common Questions About Free Water Testing in New Mexico
Aqua Shield NM offers free in-home water testing for homeowners throughout central and northern New Mexico. There's no charge for the appointment and no obligation to purchase a water treatment system afterward.
No. Your water specialist will explain the results, answer your questions, and discuss treatment options if your water test identifies a concern. Whether you move forward with a system is entirely up to you.
The in-home water test evaluates common water quality concerns based on your home's water source. Depending on your water, the testing may include hardness, chlorine, and other indicators that can affect water quality. It's an on-site evaluation that provides immediate results rather than a certified laboratory analysis.
Aqua Shield NM performs free water testing for homes served by both municipal water systems and private wells throughout central and northern New Mexico. Because well water and city water can present different water quality concerns, the testing is based on your home's water source.
That depends on what the testing finds. Some homes benefit from a whole-home water conditioner to reduce hardness, while others may need reverse osmosis drinking water filtration, carbon filtration, or additional treatment for specific contaminants. We'll review your results, explain your options, and recommend a solution based on your home's water conditions.

What Our Customers Say
Matt Bowen did a great presentation and we decided to go with the system. Main reasons was we recently remodeled our bathroom and wanted to protect it from the calcium build up. We also wanted to get away from the bottled water and get some good clean drinking water. I'm able to use it for my coffee, ice tray, and cooking. We noticed a difference with the shower and my hair looked pretty and soft. We highly recommend the system and Matt for any of your water treatment needs. The plumber Izaiah was really nice and did a great job with the install.
Great customer service and communication! Matt was helpful to work with and identified our need for Rain Soft through several tests of visibility, feel and taste. There is an immediate difference noticed in the quality with a Rain Soft Water System and we are happy to be converting to clean water. Thank you!
We had a great experience getting our water system installed! The customer service was excellent from start to finish. Sean, the gentleman who came to our home, was polite, professional, and very knowledgeable — he took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure we understood how the system works. We’re very happy with the results and highly recommend this company for anyone considering a water system in New Mexico.
