By The Numbers: Top Arvada Water Contaminants (2025)
Fluoride PPM
Barium PPM
Nitrates PPM
HAA5 PPB
TTHM PPB
Fluoride Contaminants in Water
Since the 1940s, fluoride has been purposely added to drinking water sources as a means of preventing tooth decay. In 1962, the US Public Health Service formally recommended that drinking water contain between 0.7 and 1.2 mg/L of water.
Is Fluoride in Water Dangerous?
In this condition, fluoride builds up in the bones, causing joint pain, stiffness, muscle weakness, and a risk of fractures in older adults.
Furthermore, the EPA actually has a secondary limit for fluoride in water where children are concerned. At 2 mg/L, this is half the recommended maximum for adults and it is merely a guideline, not a requirement. Too much fluoride exposure in children can, ironically, impede proper tooth enamel formation and cause permanent pitting and staining.
How Else Does Fluoride Become a Water Contaminant?
Aside from being added to the water intentionally for dental health, fluoride can make its way into Denver’s water through erosion and factory runoff.
What Is Barium?
Barium is a soft, highly reactive metal. These types of compounds rarely exist in their pure elemental form. Barium is only ever found in molecular compounds, such as barium sulfate.
Negative Effects of Barium in Water
Symptoms of barium toxicity include heartbeat irregularities, muscle weakness, breathing problems, and shaking. In its water-soluble form, barium can affect other parts of the body and can even cause blindness.
What Are Nitrates?
Nitrates are actually made up of a salt group (potassium or magnesium) and attached to a nitrate group. They have historically been used for agricultural purposes as well as explosives. Their high solubility in water makes them particularly hazardous to aquatic life and habitats.
Dangers of Nitrate as a Water Contaminant
Nitrate is found naturally in many plant sources, like spinach and arugula. At these levels, it does not generally cause problems. At higher levels, however, nitrates can wreak havoc on aquatic systems. Nitrates from fertilizer runoff, for example, can lead to algae blooms that suffocate fish and other animals.
Emerging research suggests nitrates can also cause adverse health effects in humans. Symptoms of prolonged exposure to nitrates include oxygen malabsorption, muscle cramping, nausea, and vomiting.
Haloacetic acids (HAA5) are a group of chemical compounds that form as byproducts of disinfecting drinking water with chlorine or chloramine. When these disinfectants react with natural organic matter (like decaying vegetation, algae, or other organic materials in source water), HAAs can form.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates five specific HAAs together as a group, called HAA5:
- Monochloroacetic acid
- Dichloroacetic acid
- Trichloroacetic acid
- Monobromoacetic acid
- Dibromoacetic acid
Why Are HAAs a Concern?
Cancer Risk: Some HAAs are considered possible human carcinogens. Long-term ingestion may increase the risk of cancers such as liver and bladder cancer.
Organ Toxicity: Chronic exposure has been linked to liver, kidney, and reproductive system damage in animal studies.
Developmental Effects: Potential risks for infants and children, including developmental and growth effects, though more research is ongoing.
Trihalomethanes (THMs) are a group of chemical compounds that form as byproducts when chlorine or other disinfectants react with natural organic matter (like decaying vegetation) in water. They are part of a broader class of compounds called disinfection byproducts (DBPs).
The most common THMs include:
- Chloroform
- Bromodichloromethane
- Dibromochloromethane
- Bromoform
THMs And Public Health
Long-term consumption of water with elevated THMs has been linked to an increased risk of bladder and colon cancer.
Some THMs (like chloroform) can affect the liver, kidneys, and central nervous system with prolonged exposure.
Some studies have suggested a potential link between high THM exposure and adverse pregnancy outcomes, though research is still underway regarding this particular concern.
Oil & Gas Industries In Colorado
Colorado has an especially active oil and gas industry, and petroleum processing can be found all along the front range, including Arvada.
While we rely on petroleum and other oil and gas products for daily life, these industries are also responsible for a significant amount of groundwater pollution.
Heavy metals, salts, and hydrocarbons can leach into groundwater through spills, waste, and improper disposal of byproducts.
As you can see above, barium was detected in Arvada’s water supply. This is likely due to a combination of natural runoff and the process of hydraulic fracturing, aka “fracking.” According to research on the subject, “mineral desposits containing Ba can be exposed to injected hydraulic fracturing liquids and returned to the surface in flowback-produced water.” What’s more, barium is often intentionally added to drilling fluid to help increase hydrostatic pressure.
Barium has known health risks (see above). Remove it and other hazardous contaminants with a reverse osmosis system. Don’t wait–call today!
