Faucets
- Lead poisoning can cause brain damage, learning disabilities, and physical and mental developmental disabilities.
- The lead content in some kitchen and bathroom faucets can be as high as 8%.
- California Statue AB1953 mandates that after January 2010, all drinking water faucets must contain less than 0.25% lead.
- This law will affect all faucets and fixtures that are installed new or need to be replaced after January 2010.
- Faucet manufacturers are already creating faucets that meet these requirements today.
