Step 2: Find the water pipe where it enters your home What's the pipe made of? If the pipe is plastic, it's not lead If it's not plastic, continue to Step 3 Step 3: Use a key or coin to scratch the pipe close to where it enters your home through the wall or floor What colour is the pipe underneath? If it’s shiny and orange like a penny, the connection entering your home is copper If it’s grey, continue to Step 4 Step 4: Hold a magnet to your service connection Does the magnet stick to the pipe? If the magnet sticks, the connection entering your home is likely galvanized steel. If the magnet does not stick, the connection is probably made of lead. Contact a licensed plumber to confirm and consider replacing the service connection. striped Lead Testing Programs The only effective means to measure lead levels in a home is testing at the tap. The City of Regina has two testing programs to test tap water in your home - the Random Testing Study Program and the In-Home Point of Use Testing. Random Testing is conducted to assess lead levels in homes built before 1960 and properties found in areas that are known to have lead water service connections. Water Testing Request Form City staff will test and collect water samples from the house for analysis. They will also determine the internal plumbing material inside the house, where the water service line enters the house and what, if any, water treatments are in the home. Testing takes about an hour. The bulk of the time is due to a 30-minute stagnation period where no water can run in the house. All program participants will be provided with results for their home. Contact us if you are interested in participating. Random Testing Study Program In-Home Point of Use Testing allows individual residents to have their water tested for lead. Since you cannot see, taste, or smell lead dissolved in water, testing is the only sure way of telling whether there is lead in your drinking water. All building owners within Regina city limits are eligible to participate in free lead testing where: The building was constructed prior to 1960 and is in a neighbourhood where other lead lines are present. Records indicate that the building is served by a known public lead service line. The public lead service line was replaced in the last five years. There are incomplete records for the public service line material (i.e. material unknown), the building was constructed prior to 1960 and the building is in a neighbourhood that has public lead service lines present elsewhere within the neighbourhood. Results are sent from the laboratory directly to the individual homeowner. We also receive the results along with the invoice. The results are not be posted or shared and will only be reported in an aggregated manner that prevents the individual properties that participated from being identified. To receive testing forms and bottles, first contact us to determine if you are eligible and provide the appropriate documents. Eligible participants will receive a laboratory requisition form by mail. Complete the form and take the form to the Roy Romanow Provincial Laboratory (RRPL) to obtain a sample kit. Use the kit to conduct the sampling procedures and complete the sampling form. Return water sample, sample form and laboratory requisition to the SDCL. In-Home Point of Use Testing Lead Removal Water Filter Program If your building has a known lead service connection (City-owned or private-side), or if water testing through the City's Lead Testing Program has shown lead levels above Health Canada guidelines, you are eligible for free water filtration support to help ensure safe drinking water while awaiting lead pipe replacement. ...
