Once you've had your water tested by a certified lab use Wake County's Be Well Informed tool, which generates a report of recommendations based on your test results. Depending on which lab you used, your test results will be in different units or measurement. For instance, your uranium test may be listed in μg/L, mg/L or pCi/L.
