What this product is for
The Lead Water Test Kit is a single-purpose home screen for households that want to check one drinking-water sample for lead. This lead water test kit is most useful where the concern is older plumbing, standing water, a property purchase, recent pipework, or a follow-up check after a previous result.
What it tests
- Lead contamination at low levels in water samples.
- Testing range: 0-15ppb.
- Minimum detection: 0-4ppb.
- Each kit contains 1x Lead test.
Best for
- Older homes or flats where pipework history is uncertain.
- A first check after plumbing work or pipe replacement.
- A focused follow-up when lead is the specific concern.
- Private-supply or mains-water homes where plumbing context matters.
How to use
Follow the kit instructions and use the recommended sample point. For most drinking-water checks, the cold kitchen tap is the practical starting point unless the instructions or your situation require a different sample. Record the sample date, tap, source and any recent plumbing, taste, smell or supply changes.
What the result can and cannot tell you
This is a home screening result for the sample tested at that time. It does not prove future safety, replace official mains-water investigation, or provide accredited laboratory confirmation.
What to do next
If the result is unexpected, repeat the check or compare it with your household context before taking action. Where a formal decision depends on the result, use the appropriate water company, council or laboratory confirmation route.

Reviews
Bought several of these and showed expected high readings for water I knew ran through a lead pipe.
What is most useful is how clear the strip reading is. It wasn’t faint or confusing, like other i have used.
Only took a few minutes.
Would definitely consider using again in the future.
I use a well for drinking water, so wanted to double check the water quality. The kit was very easy to use and didn’t require any special tools. I followed the steps exactly as written and the result was clear. It gave me reassurance without any hassle.
Ordered this after reading about lead in older pipes.
It arrived on time and I tested my tap water that same evening.
The strip reacted quickly and the reading was easy to compare.
Simple, direct, and useful.
I am not technical, but this was easy to understand. The instructions are written in plain language. You just follow each step and wait a few minutes. The reading was clear enough for me to feel confident in it.
The kit works and gives a result fairly quickly. My only issue was that the instruction text was printed quite small, which made it harder to read. Aside from that, the testing process itself was simple.
