Lead in tap-water tests, postal area M5H0% of tests above Ontario's limitYour area · M5HNon Regulated Lead Sample · 2 tests, Jun 5, 2014 to Feb 16, 2020

In postal area M5H, 0 of 2 home tap-water samples (0%) tested above Ontario's limit for lead (10 micrograms per litre). That's too few samples to compare with the rest of the city. Health Canada recommends a stricter limit of 5 micrograms per litre: 0 samples here (0%) were above it. These are voluntary tests, mostly from older homes, so they don't tell you about this house. Lead comes from old pipes and plumbing, not the City's treatment plants. If your home was built before the mid-1950s, you can get a free test kit by calling 311.
