Below is a list of these drinking water contaminants and what they can mean
to your health.
Chlorine & Chlorination By-products
Chlorine is a type of disinfectant, not a contaminant, that's added to the water to control microbes.
From chlorine, disinfection by-products, such as total trihalomethanes (TTHms), can form in the water.
Industrial Pollutants
Industrial pollutants in your drinking water can come from discharge from different kinds of factories
or chemical plants.
Heavy Metals
Heavy metals such as lead may get into your water from the pipes and plumbing coming into your
home. Excessive lead exposure is a serious concern, especially for young children and babies.
Microbial Cysts
microbial cysts can enter the water from human
or animal fecal waste. Cryptosporidium is a
parasite commonly found in lakes and rivers.
According to the EPA, cryptosporidium
is resistant to disinfection.
