How Old Is Bluebell's Housing Stock?
With 54% of homes built before 1986, lead solder in plumbing is a potential concern. Federal law banned lead solder in drinking-water plumbing in 1986, but many older homes retain original plumbing.

Housing Age Profile
Viewed through the lens of construction era, Bluebell has a median build year of 1986; houses completed ahead of 1986 can hold lead-bearing solder or fittings.
Over half of homes in Bluebell were built before 1986, when federal law began restricting lead solder in drinking-water plumbing. Older plumbing may leach lead into drinking water, especially with corrosive water chemistry.

Protecting Children from Lead in Bluebell
Why children are most at risk: The CDC states that no safe blood lead level in children has been identified. Children under 6 absorb lead more readily than adults, and even low levels can cause developmental delays, learning difficulties, and behavioral problems.
If you have young children or are pregnant, consider testing your home's water - especially if your home was built before 1986.

What You Can Do in Bluebell

- Install a certified water filter. For Revised Total Coliform Rule, listed in the water-quality records for Bluebell: if it is a rule or reporting requirement rather than a contaminant, ask your utility what the record involved; for bacteria, follow any boil-water notice from your utility; for a specific chemical contaminant, check whether a filter is certified to reduce it. Not every contaminant has a consumer filter certification.
