Per NSF Annex G, lead-free products contain less than 0.25% weighted average lead content on wetted surfaces.
Recent lead-reduction legislation
from states such as California (AB1953)
and Vermont (S152) now require any
plumbing product intended to convey
or dispense potable tap (drinking)
water must not contain more than
0.25% weighted average lead on
wetted surfaces. With states such
as Washington and Maryland
proposing their own lead-reduction
legislation, more and more states
are predicted to follow suit.
This lead-reduction movement within
the plumbing world means changes for
manufacturers, suppliers and installers
who must comply with the requirements
when they take effect on Jan. 1, 2010
(currently for California and Vermont).
