Your Complete Wastewater
Surveillance Solutions

Monitoring for signs of SARS-CoV-2 in your wastewater system has been shown to be a powerful leading indicator in the effort to monitor the spread or decline of transmission in communities.

Traditional SARS-CoV-2 wastewater testing methods, including the collection, extraction and concentration steps, were expensive, complicated and time-consuming.

Hach® now offers a complete SARS-CoV-2 monitoring offering, which includes our line of Composite Samplers plus a SARS-CoV-2 laboratory method. The laboratory method is based on a simple/quick extraction coupled with an easy-to-use laboratory qPCR (quantitative polymerase chain reaction) analyzer, which allows your wastewater surveillance program to deliver same-day results.

World's First Rapid, On-Site COVID-19
Wastewater Testing Lab Solution


Conduct fast, accurate, qPCR
molecular microbial testing. Identifying what is causing an impact to your system is the first step to improving performance – ultimately saving time and money.

Faster Results
Your facility will now have the ability to take action the same day rather than waiting up to seven days to receive results from a third-party lab.


Lower Cost Per Test
Sending water samples out for analysis can cost $300-$1000 per test. Testing in-house with Hach is ~$40 per test.

Accurate Testing Technology
Using gold-standard qPCR technology, the LuminUltra Q-16 test measures a specific RNA molecule in real-time, multiplying and amplifying it—so that trace amounts of virus can be detected.

Flexible Components
Includes isolation reagents, assay & GeneCount (R) qPCR device.
