Drinking water

BIOLAB is licensed for the sampling and analysis of drinking water to Trinkwasserverordnung TrinkwV, Germany’s Ordinance on the Quality of Water Intended for Human Consumption. Since the first amendment to this ordinance entered into force in November 2011, drinking water sampling must no longer be performed at the central domestic water connection but right at the consumer’s tap. Consequently, landlords, employees or public agencies are responsible for changes in the water quality within their buildings. In particular, microbiological contamination of drinking water often occurs within the installation used by the consumer.
