Questions
Does Florida, FL have lead pipes?
Florida's main water system, Florida City, hasn't reported service line counts to EPA. Ask the utility for its inventory.
Who supplies water to Florida?

How do I check whether my Florida home has a lead service line?
Search your address on Florida City's service line inventory map. You can also scratch the pipe where water enters your home: lead is soft, dull gray, scratches to shiny silver and doesn't attract a magnet.
