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.

JEA periodically tests a portion of the residences for lead and copper levels and other water quality parameters throughout the distribution system. Participation in the sampling is voluntary and free. If you are interested in participating in this program, please call us 731-422-7500.
