Testing for lead in drinking water is easy with this one-step test kit that can detect dissolved lead at levels below 15 parts per billion (ppb). Testing for lead in drinking water is a most because many homes and buildings have pipes and plumbing fixtures that contain lead. Lead can leach from pipes into household water, making this plumbing a major source of water contamination and a potential source of toxic lead poisoning. Lead is so toxic that even very low levels may be dangerous. Lead consumption and poisoning has been linked to many serious illnesses, especially in young children. Lead can harm mental and physical development and may cause brain abnormalities, kidney damage and hypertension. As with other water contaminants, the risk of lead damage is much greater for children than for adults --families should be particularly concerned about the health of the water supply. Consumers should test lead levels at each faucet in the home, especially if the plumbing fixtures could be from the 1980's or older. Lead from pipes can leach into household water used for drinking, cooking and washing. This one-step test kit can detect dissolved lead at levels below the EPA Action level of 15 parts per billion (ppb) in ten minutes with no mixing or measuring.
