Kohler
Co. announced all of its residential bathroom and kitchen faucets have been
converted for compliance with California legislation AB1953 and Vermont’s bill
number S.015 in regard to lead content in faucets that are used for drinking
water.
“Kohler is committed to a proactive approach when it comes to
legislation that changes the plumbing industry, and this conversion was no
exception,” said
Rick Reles, vice president of global
faucets at Kohler Co.
To ensure compliance, each residential faucet is certified by
an independent third party organization, NSF International. A 1/2-inch silver
decal on each faucet box ensures customers that their faucet has been inspected
and meets the new low-lead requirements.
