Recent studies have shown that lead can create serious health problems even at extremely low levels. Growing children can suffer from learning disabilities and lower IQ levels. Women may experience infertility, miscarriages, and premature births. And men are at risk for higher blood pressure. So now, testing for lead is no longer just an option, it's an essential step to make sure your family stays healthy.
Home Free lead testing kits from MACS Lab give you an easy way to tell if there's a dangerous concentration of lead in your home's paint, soil or water. They're affordable, easy to use and are available for sale on-line. Most importantly, they give you lab-accurate results, something no other home lead testing kit can do.

Home Free Lead Testing Kit for Paint
Homes built and painted before 1978 may contain dangerous levels of lead in their paint. Lead dust from interior paints (even undercoats) can accumulate on windowsills and ledges, while lead in exterior paints can leach into soil.
Paint related lead hazards can include:
- Dust from lead based paint
- Mini-blinds
- Painted surfaces
- Plumbing
- Ceramic dinnerware
- Recently remodeled areas, including carpets and floors
Additionally, homes built prior to 1978 are subject to Title X of the Department of Housing and Urban Development's 1992 residential lead based paint hazard reduction act, which requires the full disclosure of lead based paint in any structures you intend to sell or lease.
The home free lead testing kit for paint allows for laboratory certified results, with no potentially inaccurate home analysis required.

Home Free Lead Testing Kit for Water
House or apartments built before June 1986 may contain highly water-soluble lead in the plumbing, including solder, connections, and plastic piping. This lead can potentially leach its way into the home drinking water supply.
Water and plumbing related lead hazards could include:
- Brass faucets or fittings
- Lead pipes
- Copper Pipes with lead solder
- Plumbing systems made before June 1986
- Homes with naturally soft water, or where water sits in the pipes for a long time.
The Home-Free lead testing kit for water provides laboratory-certified results for your water sample.

Home Free Lead Testing Kit for Soil
Rain, particularly acid rain, can leach out of exterior house paint and into the surrounding soil. This is true even if the exterior has been painted over with several coats of non-lead-based paint.
Children and pets who play in (and perhaps even occasionally consume) outdoor soil are particularly at risk for exterior leached soil.
The Home-Free Lead Testing Kit for Soil accurately will check soil samples for lead contamination.
