Water Testing for Lead

Testing is essential because you cannot see, taste, or smell lead in drinking water. Call JEA at 731-422-7500 to find out how to get your water tested for lead.

Volunteer for Triennial Lead & Copper Tap Monitoring. JEA periodically tests a portion of the residences as required by TDEC for lead and copper levels and other water quality parameters throughout the distribution system.
