Next steps for Phoenix, AZ
Test your own tap with a certified lab first-draw sample; Phoenix, AZ may offer free or low-cost kits through the utility. If your own line is lead, replacing the private side runs about $1,200-$12,300 (EPA average about $4,700). Ask Inspire Communities-Springbrook whether it covers that cost before hiring anyone - many utilities now do.

What a 90th-percentile result does and does not tell you: how to read a lead result. Why an old exceedance still matters: over the limit before, under it now.
