(EstateNewsWire.com, September 26, 2012 ) Nashville, TN – If one’s home is over 60 or 70 years old, there are probably some lead pipes in the house. Over the years lead piping in homes has been reduced and then eliminated completely due to risk of lead contamination in the drinking water. Greenway Home Services does plumbing repair in Nashville homes, both old and new, and offers these tips to reduce lead content in the drinking water. Visit http://www.trustgreenway.com/ for more information or call 615-970-3354.
If one is concerned about lead in their drinking water, one should have the water tested by a reputable testing company. If lead is found, one can take some precautionary measures to limit the lead intake. This is especially important to do if there are children in the home.
Most of the lead in drinking water builds up in the pipes when the water is sitting still. Most people let the water faucet run a minute or so to allow the cooler water to emerge before drinking it, but this also removes the water that has set in the pipes, thus reducing the level of lead in the water.
Having a water filter system installed will greatly reduce lead and other contaminants in the water as well. One can choose to have a main filtering system installed where the water comes into the house or they can choose to have a filtering system installed by a plumbing professional under the kitchen sink, which is less expensive. If either of these is not an option, buying a filter pitcher for the drinking water and keeping it in the refrigerator or buying bottled water may the least expensive answer. Of course, if one is greatly worried about lead piping in an existing home or one that is about to be purchased, having the lead piping replaced is the more expensive answer.
Greenway is concerned about the quality of the drinking water in one’s home. If interested in installing a filtering system or having ones’ lead piping replaced in the home, they can provide these services. One should call the plumbing repair experts at Greenway Home Services at 615-970-3354 or visit their website at http://www.plumbingrepairnashville.com/.
