Lead & Copper

Corrosive water can leach lead and copper from the plumbing fixtures in homes. Lead is a common metal found throughout the environment and also in lead-based paint, soil, household dust and certain types of pottery, porcelain and pewter.

Sampling Instructions:

For most accurate results, fill a 32 oz. container after 6 hours of non-use (first thing in the morning) or use a Biomarine approved "Metals Acid Washed" container.
