Franklin Springs Infrastructure Age

Housing Age Profile
Copper plumbing joined with lead solder was standard practice through the mid-1980s - a design choice that federal regulators prohibited in 1986. Franklin Springs's residential inventory, centered around a median build year of 1995, is weighted toward the post-prohibition era. That context is relevant because the primary plumbing risk in older homes comes not from the municipal water supply but from what happens as water moves through lead-jointed pipes inside the structure - an exposure pathway that newer homes mostly avoid.
Most homes in Franklin Springs were built after 1986, reducing the risk of lead contamination from plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.
