    Major Problems

    with the Residential Water in California

    Water Quality Contaminants

    Southern California's drinking water sources can contain various contaminants, including heavy metals (e.g., lead, arsenic), disinfection byproducts, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and industrial chemicals, which can pose health risks if present above regulated levels.

    Arsenic Contamination

    Elevated levels of arsenic, a naturally occurring contaminant, have been detected in some groundwater sources in Southern California. Long-term exposure to arsenic in drinking water can increase the risk of cancer and other health problems.

    Groundwater Contamination

    Groundwater sources used for drinking water in Southern California may be contaminated by pollutants from agricultural activities, industrial facilities, landfills, and urban runoff, leading to concerns about water quality and safety.

    Microbial Contamination

    Despite treatment processes, drinking water in Southern California may still contain harmful microbes such as bacteria, viruses, and protozoa. Improperly maintained distribution systems or contamination events can increase the risk of microbial contamination.

    Chloramine and Chlorine Treatment

    Chloramine and chlorine are commonly used disinfectants in Southern California's water treatment plants. While effective at killing harmful microorganisms, their use can lead to taste and odor issues in drinking water and the formation of disinfection byproducts that may pose health risks.

    Water Hardness

    Besides causing scaling and affecting soap effectiveness, hard water can lead to mineral buildup in appliances like water heaters and dishwashers, reducing their efficiency and lifespan and potentially increasing energy consumption and maintenance costs.

    Lead Pipes and Fixtures

    Some older homes in Southern California may have plumbing systems containing lead pipes or fixtures, which can leach lead into drinking water, especially if the water is corrosive. Lead exposure can have adverse health effects, particularly in children.

    Disinfection Byproducts (DBPs)

    Chlorine and chloramine used for disinfection can react with organic matter in water, forming disinfection byproducts (DBPs) such as trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids. Prolonged exposure to DBPs has been associated with health risks, including cancer and reproductive problems.

    Hard Water

    Many areas in Southern California have hard water, which contains high levels of minerals such as calcium and magnesium. Hard water can cause scaling in plumbing fixtures, decrease the effectiveness of soaps and detergents, and affect the taste of drinking water.

    Emerging Contaminants

    Emerging contaminants, such as pharmaceuticals, personal care products, and endocrine-disrupting chemicals, are increasingly being detected in Southern California's drinking water supplies. Their long-term health effects are still being studied, but they raise concerns about water quality and safety.

    Health Issues Caused By Using Unfiltered Water

    “Chat GPT” also says: The drinking water in Southern California can sometimes cause issues for skin and hair due to its mineral content, chemical additives, and other factors.

    Dry Skin

    Hard water, which is common in many areas of Southern California, contains high levels of minerals such as calcium and magnesium. These minerals can strip the skin of its natural oils, leading to dryness, irritation, and potentially exacerbating conditions like eczema and psoriasis.

    Hair Damage

    Hard water can also affect hair by leaving mineral deposits on the scalp and hair strands, making hair feel rough, brittle, and more prone to breakage. It can also cause color-treated hair to fade more quickly and reduce the effectiveness of hair products like shampoos and conditioners.

    Scalp Irritation

    The mineral buildup from hard water can irritate the scalp, leading to itching, flakiness, and dandruff. Additionally, the presence of chlorine and chloramine used for disinfection in the water supply can further exacerbate scalp irritation and dryness.

    Clogged Pores

    Hard water can leave a residue on the skin, clogging pores and potentially contributing to acne breakouts and other skin issues. This residue can also make it more difficult to thoroughly cleanse the skin, leading to a dull complexion and uneven texture.

    Residue Buildup

    The mineral deposits left behind by hard water can accumulate on the skin and hair over time, creating a filmy residue that feels unpleasant and may require additional cleansing efforts to remove effectively.

    Sensitivity Reactions

    Some individuals may be more sensitive to certain chemicals or contaminants present in the drinking water, experiencing allergic reactions or other adverse effects on the skin and hair.

    Hair Discoloration

    Hard water can cause discoloration of hair, particularly in individuals with light-colored or chemically treated hair. Mineral deposits can create a brassy or dull appearance, altering the natural color or vibrancy of the hair.

    Frizzy Hair

    Hard water can disrupt the natural pH balance of the hair, leading to frizz and flyaways. This can make it difficult to manage and style hair, resulting in a less polished appearance.

    Eczema & Dermatitis

    Individuals with sensitive skin conditions such as eczema or dermatitis may experience flare-ups or increased symptoms when exposed to certain chemicals or minerals present in Southern California’s drinking water. Chlorine and other disinfection byproducts can also trigger skin reactions in some people.

    Premature Aging

    Exposure to harsh water conditions over time can contribute to premature aging of the skin, including fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity. The drying effects of hard water can leave skin looking dull and dehydrated, exacerbating signs of aging.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Minerals like calcium and magnesium cause water hardness, and although these minerals are not harmful, and can actually be beneficial when in high concentrations they can cause your water to become hard.

    Hard water can dry out your skin, cause scale buildup in your pipes, and leave a layer of residue on surfaces that it comes in contact with. The best way to remove hardness from your water is by installing a whole house water softener.

    California's Toilet to Tap Law

    Do you really feel safe drinking sewage water?

    California wastewater to be recycled into tap water, according to new regulations

    In California, toilet or shower wastewater will no longer just be dumped into the Pacific Ocean or used for farmland. Now, it’ll be recycled into drinking water.
    California’s Water Resources Control Board will introduce Direct Potable Reuse, a program designed to pump recycled water into the public drinking water system.
    The board approved new regulations in a unanimous vote on Tuesday, making California the second state after Colorado to recycle wastewater into drinking water.
    Board Chair Joaquin Esquivel said the goal is to protect public health while reducing the state’s dependency on the shrinking water supply from the Colorado River.
    “The reality is that anyone out there on Mississippi River, anyone out there on Colorado River, anyone out there taking drinking water downstream from a wastewater treatment plant discharge – which I promise you you’re all doing – is already drinking toilet to tap,” said Esquivel.
    Orange County’s Groundwater Replenishment System is already home to the largest purification system in the world, recycling 100% of local wastewater.
    With worsening droughts, this move is long needed for a state that has struggled to provide drinking water to its 38 million residents. In 2023, more than 97% of California has been in moderate to severe drought, and the state just had its worst multi-year drought on record.
    Droughts are here to stay, and water suppliers are struggling to keep up. A 2022 water supply and demand report indicated that around 18% of water suppliers were at risk of facing potential shortages.
    The state has long struggled to overcome the distaste some residents had toward drinking “toilet to tap” water. Similar efforts in the 1990s fizzled out when the toilet to tap phrase caught on and the idea became too unpopular to implement.
    Despite the negative moniker, the regulations are key to public trust and protecting public health, Esquivel said.
    “What we have here are standards, science, and importantly monitoring that allow us to have safe pure water – it’s actually likely better quality water than many of those systems are pulling in now,” Esquivel added.
    About half of tap water may be contaminated with “forever chemicals,” according to a study from the US Geological Survey.
    “These new regulations give water managers a critical new tool as we confront the challenges of climate change,” the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California said in a statement. “They will enable Metropolitan to advance development of Pure Water Southern California, which will be one of the largest water recycling facilities in the world and benefit 19 million people in our service area.”
