Borehole Yield Testing
If the client requires it, a specialized contractor can do an accurate measurement of the water yield of the borehole. After the testing is completed, a certificate indicating that the yield is tested and provided.

Water Quality Test
A sample of the water can be taken and sent to a dedicated laboratory for a chemical test. The test results will be provided to the client in the form of a report, which will state whether the water is suitable for human consumption.
