| Water Lead - When is time to call a plumber? |
How Does Lead Get Into My Water?
Lead enters the water (“leaches”) through contact with the
plumbing.
Lead leaches into water through:
Corrosion* of
- Pipes
- Solder
- Fixtures and Faucets (brass)
- Fittings
*Corrosion is a dissolving or wearing away of metal caused by a chemical reaction between water and your plumbing.
The amount of lead in your water also depends on the types and amounts of minerals in the water, how long the water stays in the pipes, the amount of wear in the pipes, the water’s acidity and its temperature.
HEALTH TIP
To help block the storage of lead in your child’s body, serve your
family meals that are low in fat and high in calcium and iron,
including dairy products and green vegetables.
