These faucets have the potential to contribute as much as one-third of the total lead content in the water.

The remaining lead originates from various other components of the plumbing system.

Pre-1988 lead solder joints used in copper pipes are a notable source of lead contamination.

In some severe scenarios, the presence of lead in stagnant water within pipes for several hours can be significantly influenced by older faucets.

Additionally, a lead service line can also be a factor in elevating the levels of lead in water.
