Walk by a pond coated with scum and algae when you happen to be thirsty, and guess what – you’re going to keep walking until you find a clean source of Lead Your Water .
Even then, just because water looks clean doesn’t mean it is. There are all sorts of water-borne contaminants that can’t be seen. But the harm they can cause to your plumbing and health are all too real.
The Problem with Lead Contamination
Lead is one of the more common well- and city-water contaminants, especially in older homes with lead pipes. Over time, pipe interiors start to corrode and, as they do, lead is leached into your water supply. The greater the corrosion, the greater the lead contamination.
How would you know if your water contained heavy amounts of lead? These are among the most common symptoms of lead poisoning:
- Learning difficulties
- Loss of appetite
- Weight loss
- Fatigue
- Abdominal pain
- Vomiting
- Hearing loss
- Headaches
- Joint and muscle pain
- Premature birth
That takes us right back to the title of this blog. “Get the lead out,” when used in everyday conversation, essentially means “move faster”. But, when it comes to improving the quality of your water, Norhio Plumbing can get the lead out – for good!
