Hard Water Filtration Solutions For Castle Rock Residents

Hard water may not seem like a big issue, but it’s impact literally builds up over time. Signs of hard water include:
- Limescale on faucets and appliances
- Soapscum on shower walls and glass doors
- Itchy, dry skin

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 water through erosion and factory runoff.
Chromium is a naturally occurring metallic element found in rocks, soils, plants, and animals. It exists in several forms, but the two most relevant for drinking water are:
Chromium-3 (trivalent chromium): An essential nutrient in small amounts, important for metabolism.
Chromium-6 (hexavalent chromium): A toxic form that can be harmful to health. Chromium-6 is the same compound made infamous by the Erin Brockovich case.
Chromium in water is usually measured as total chromium, which includes both forms.
How Does Chromium Get Into Drinking Water?
Chromium can enter water as natural rock and soil sources erode. It is also a byproduct of several industrial processes, including steel and pulp mills, electroplating, and textile production.
Health Hazards
Chromium, particularly hexavalent chromium, has been linked to certain types of cancer.
Bromate is a chemical compound (BrO₃⁻) that can form in drinking water as an unintended byproduct of disinfection (DBP). It is most commonly produced when ozone—used to disinfect water—reacts with naturally occurring bromide ions in the source water. Bromate is odorless, tasteless, and colorless, so it can be present without any noticeable signs.
Dangers of Bromate In Water
Bromate is classified as a possible human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). The main concerns are:
Cancer Risk: Long-term ingestion has been linked to increased risk of certain cancers, particularly kidney cancer in animal studies.
Kidney Damage: The kidneys are a primary target organ for bromate toxicity.
Hearing Loss & Neurological Effects: High experimental doses have caused hearing loss and nervous system effects in animal testing.
There is no safe “nutritional” level for bromate; it is not beneficial to health in any amount.
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 Denver 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.
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 Denver 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.
Where Do Barium Contaminants in Denver Water Come From?
The barium found in Denver’s water supply probably came from eroded natural deposits. Over time, wind, and rain can erode rocks containing barium and it can then make its way into groundwater and other municipal sources
Fluoride
Fluoride has been added to drinking water since the 1940s to prevent tooth decay. However, high levels can be dangerous, leading to joint pain, muscle weakness, and a risk of fracture, especially in older adults.

There is no safe “nutritional” level for bromate; it is not beneficial to health in any amount.
Nitrates
Nitrates are hazardous chemicals that come predominantly from agricultural runoff. There is plenty of evidence that shows nitrates wreak havoc on aquatic ecosystems, and growing evidence supports risks to human health as well.
Barium
Barium is a highly reactive metal that can cause health problems over time.
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. Denver’s level of barium is concerning. At 34 ppb, it is quite close to the EPA max of 36.5 ppb.
