How do I find out if my water service connection is lead?
If your house was built before 1926 or during World War II, you might have a lead water service leading to your home from the street. To determine if this is lead, have someone familiar with plumbing materials look at the water pipe on the street side of your water meter.

If you have questions, call the SPRWS Engineering Department at 651-266-6270 between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., weekdays.
