Remember your annual checkup rule? Yes, once a year. Mark it on your calendar. Call it “Wellness Wednesday” or “Water Party Day.”
However, test immediately if you notice any of these signs: sudden bad taste, cloudy water, rusty stains in the toilet, or if a family member gets a mysterious stomach bug. Also, test right after a big flood or an earthquake. Mother Nature is a bit of a prankster.
And here’s the good news: once you do it once, it becomes stupidly easy the second time. You’ll be a water-testing ninja.
