To assist in this effort, we encourage residents to help us identify their service line material by using the interactive map below. If the service line at your address has no information, please complete the survey with all necessary details at the bottom of this page so that we can update the service line material accurately. For further assistance with identifying your service line material or locating your account number, please refer to the sidebar.

Find lead pipes in your home

That's great because they aren't made of lead - congratulations! But it's still possible that you might have lead fittings or solder somewhere in the plumbing, especially if it was installed before 1960. If you want to check whether there's lead in your water, try requesting a test from your water utility.
