There were some officials that were monitoring the life expectancy of lead pipes, however they have all died of old age.

It's not the life expectancy I would be worried about, ore like whats in the first glass of water in the morning. :)
 
They have found Roman lead pipes that still held water.
The plumber probably "popped home to get me tools"

I have come across lead pipes that are 150 years old and still perfect. However are there any official figures of years on lead?
 
Dannyboy, thank for you your contribution. I was disappointed you never wrote numbnuts. I assume you do not know then. Well you would not, having spent lots of time kicking sh!t around that farm. :)
 
I've found this is the most reliable equation for working what you're asking out, it takes in lots of various factors, but i won't bore you with the details.
