    Q:Is it true the tub is made of lead/ leaches lead into the bathwater?

    Answer This Question

    A:  Hi SamT, this is Sarah with Kohler Customer Service. I am glad to address your question. Lead may exist in the iron but in trace amounts due to the use of recycled metals. All trace amounts of lead are encapsulated by enamel glass and are below 0.01% of the overall product by weight. No lead is intentionally added to the iron in these products. Thank you for choosing Kohler.
