To Reduce Lead At The Tap
Running your water for a few min
utes first thing in the morning or after
your tap has not been used for several
hours is a proven method the reduce
the potential for elevated lead and
copper levels in drinking, and mak
ing baby formula. Most important,
use only lead-free solder to make
plumbing repairs.
Lead cannot be detected in local
water supplies, although it may oc
cur in standing water samples from
some taps. Plumbing components
may, by law, contain up to 8 percent
lead and be labeled lead-free. When
water stands in plumbing systems for
long periods o f time, it may leach
some lead from the plumbing.
Federal and state drinking water
regulations strive to reduce lead at
the water tap. Environmental Protec
tion Agency regulations require that
water providers inform the public o f
possible lead hazards. The E P A re
quires water systems to send the at
tached public service announcement
to radio and television stations. L o
cal area water providers have also
developed brochures tailored to lo
cal lead and drinking water issues.
These are available to customers on
request.
Local water providers share the
concerns o f state and federal regula
tory agencies on the health risks of
lead exposure. I f customers have a
concern about lead or copper levels
in their drinking water, they should
contact their local water provider.

Alm ost every homeowner is aware o f
the disadvantages o f sheet m etal air
duct. I t ’s noisy, and it leaks.
Noise reverberates due to expansion
and contraction o f the metal itself, fan
vib ratio n, and even from the hom e’s
occupants. A ir leaks from jo in ts that are
not tig h tly sealed.
To overcome these problems, there ’s a
rigid fiber glass duct system which ab
sorbs the noise. And its consistent high
insulating value and m inim al air leakage
help to deliver warmed or cooled air at
desired temperatures, w ith greater energy
efficiency and im proved com fort.
A lthough this SuperDuct™ system,
manufactured by S chuller International,
offers the highest performance o f any
type o f duct available, its installed cost
is comparable to other systems. This
means i t ’s affordable fo r any home.
T o assure syste m p e rfo rm a n c e ,
S u p e rD u c t is a v a ila b le o n ly fro m
Schuller factory-q ualified contractors.
