Protecting Your Health and Home: The Hidden Dangers of Chlorinated Water
Protecting Your Health and Home: The Hidden Dangers of Chlorinated Water in the Greater Sacramento Area and how a HALO System can Help.
Introduction: Chlorine has long been used as a disinfectant in water treatment plants to ensure water safety. However, while it effectively kills harmful bacteria, its presence in drinking, swimming, bathing, and showering water can lead to a myriad of health, safety, and aesthetic issues for homeowners and renters alike.
Note: We are grateful for and highly respectful of our water treatment and distribution organizations. They contribute to providing water for all of us.
Health Implications:
- Respiratory Irritation: Inhalation of chlorine vapors during showering or bathing can irritate the respiratory system, exacerbating conditions such as asthma and allergies.
- Skin and Hair Problems: Chlorine strips the skin and hair of natural oils, leading to dryness, itching, and exacerbation of skin conditions like eczema and dermatitis. Additionally, it can cause hair to become brittle and prone to breakage.
- Increased Cancer Risk: Studies have linked long-term exposure to chlorinated water with an increased risk of certain cancers, including bladder and colorectal cancer.
Safety Concerns:
- Formation of Harmful Byproducts: When chlorine reacts with organic matter in water, it forms disinfection byproducts (DBPs) such as trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs), which are known carcinogens and pose serious health risks.
- Pregnancy Risks: Exposure to chlorinated water containing DBPs during pregnancy has been associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, including preterm birth and low birth weight.
Aesthetic Issues:
- Unpleasant Taste and Odor: Chlorine imparts a distinct taste and odor to water, making it unpalatable for drinking and cooking.
- Discoloration of Fabrics: Chlorine can cause fabrics like clothing and towels to fade and lose their vibrancy over time.
