I sent in a sample I purchased from US Water Systems. The lab sends the info to the company and then they send the info to me along with some recommendations. One thing, FedEx (was a pre-paid package) lied and said it would arrive the next morning. Looks like it wasn’t by the check-in date/time. I am not entirely sure the Fecal Coliform and E.Coli test is accurate. I will shock and then have the county test. I ran water for 5 minutes, disinfectant the faucet (this one is before filters) with an alcohol soaked cotton ball set on fire, then ran water for 2 minutes before taking samples.
With this information does anyone have any suggestions of setup? I do have a pre-filter and a 4” media filter, a cycle stop valve, maybe a 36gal tank.

I also did some work outside of the well to install CSV, new yard hydrant, and fix broken PVC fitting. Contamination could have come from that.
