Is Your Water Safe? How to Test for and Remove Lead

Jack Hope of Hope Plumbing is here to talk about an important safety issue involving the water in your home.  The majority of older homes in Indianapolis have lead service lines feeding water to the home. There is no question that there is lead in the water. The question is how much.

It is easy to find out if you have lead in your water. You can buy a test kit or Hope Plumbing would be glad to come out and test it for you.

Once the test has been performed and if you have lead in your water, you can learn about solutions to drastically reduce the lead content in your water. Jack has brought a piece of lead pipe that they recently removed, the fitting we use to tie on to lead pipe, and a filter that drastically reduces lead content.
