Water Test Kit (Lead)

Product Information

Testing for lead in your drinking water is important if your home is built before 1980s as you are likely to have lead solder in your pipe OR if you drink tank water.

Lead is a toxic heavy metal that may arise from lead solder on metal pipe, brass taps, lead pipe (used prior to 1930), and PVC pipe. Lead poses a major risk to children's physical and mental health with extensive research associating it with a reduced IQ, impaired hearing, anti-social behaviour, learning and behaviourhal disorders such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, as well as increased aggressive behaviour and criminal tendencies to name only a few! (The Lead Group, 2010). Lead contamination in household drinking water is likely to be grossly underestimated in Australia. We are excited to announce the arrival of the Watersafe test kit for lead – a simple, do-it-yourself kit that assesses if lead is present in your drinking water and compares them with EPA recommended levels.
