Lead in Your Water? Here’s How to Fix It in Minneapolis–St. Paul
Removing lead from drinking water is critical for your family’s health. Even small amounts can cause serious risks, especially for children — including developmental delays, lower IQ, and organ damage. In the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, where water is moderately hard and chlorine-treated, lead can still enter your water through aging pipes and old fixtures.
An effective solution combines proven filtration methods. Activated carbon or reverse osmosis can remove most lead, while also tackling PFAS, chlorine, and other contaminants. A whole-home system with a particulate filter adds extra protection, shielding your plumbing and appliances from buildup and corrosion.
Regular maintenance and professional water testing help confirm that lead levels stay low and your system works as intended. For maximum peace of mind, Northern Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® proudly installs Brita PRO whole-home filtration systems — trusted technology designed to remove lead and keep your water safe at every tap.

Other Water Issues We Solve
Iron in Water
Does your home’s water have a metallic taste? Is staining occurring in your home’s fixtures and appliances? Too much iron in the water is a common problem. We have the fix for this.
PFAS Forever Chemicals
If your water supply contains PFAS “forever” chemicals, the solution is to include our Brita PRO PFAS Titanium Series filter in your whole-home water treatment system.
Chlorine in Water
Municipal water supplies often include levels of chlorine and chloramine that can affect the taste and quality of your drinking water. We solve this problem with the Brita PRO catalytic carbon water filter.
Particulates in Water
The first stage in your whole-home water filtration system is typically a particulate filter, which removes sediment, a.k.a. dirt. This filter protects all downstream filters, extending system life.
