The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns that lead exposure in drinking water can cause serious health risks, especially for children and pregnant women (source).
How to Reduce Lead Exposure in Your Plumbing System

✔️ Use NSF-Certified Water Filters – Removes contaminants effectively
✔️ Flush Your Taps – Run cold water for 1-2 minutes before use (EPA Guidelines)
