*Sample can be collected from each waterline in a multi-source sample so long as those lines originate from the same water source.
6. Using the pipette, draw water from the collection cup
7. Place 5 (FIVE) drops of water into the vial. DO NOT FILL TO LINE.
3. PREP
8. Gently swirl the vial to mix reagent in the vial with the water

1 Line = PASS = below 500 CFU/mL
2 Lines = FAIL = 500 CFU/mL or above
If Fail, see “Failed Test Result Protocol” for instructions to make your water safe again.
Troubleshooting
- If no lines appear, test is invalid. Repeat testing instructions with a new test kit.
- Make sure that each step is followed closely, and the timer is set to the exact times noted in the instructions.
- Too much water in the vial can dilute the reagent preventing any lines from displaying.
