Tap water quality in El Dorado Hills, California? Is it safe to drink?

The Tap Water Quality in El Dorado Hills, California, is closely monitored and generally considered safe, adhering to all federal and state water safety regulations. The primary water utility serving El Dorado Hills is El Dorado Irrigation District (EID).

Key Points about El Dorado Hills' Water Quality:

Source: The water in El Dorado Hills primarily comes from surface water sources, including the Folsom Lake and Jenkinson Lake. These reservoirs are essential for providing the necessary supply to the region.
Testing and Standards: The El Dorado Irrigation District conducts regular testing of the water supply to ensure it complies with the standards set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California State Water Resources Control Board. These agencies provide strict guidelines to maintain the quality and safety of drinking water.
Water Hardness: The water in El Dorado Hills is known to be moderately hard. This means it contains a balanced amount of minerals like calcium and magnesium. Such mineral content is typical for water sourced from natural reservoirs and may lead to some buildup in household appliances over time.
Common Concerns: Some residents may notice a slight taste or odor in the water, which is attributed to the natural mineral content and organic material in surface waters. While this does not pose health risks, individuals sensitive to these qualities may prefer using water filtration systems to enhance taste.

Residents are encouraged to consider using water purifiers to ensure the highest quality of water for personal consumption. Additionally, water softeners might be beneficial for those concerned about mineral buildup in their plumbing and household appliances. Staying informed and proactive helps maintain both water quality and peace of mind.

What do we do? How do we help?

We have developed the TDSBot, an inexpensive IOT device that monitors, in real time, the Incoming and Outgoing TDS levels, temperature, flow rate and cumulative volume of water filtered. Easy to install, it works with all water purifiers including, sediment, GAC, Carbon, Micro, Ultra, Nano and Reverse Osmosis water filters. Key benefits:

Know the incoming and filtered water quality in real time.
Know the volume of water filtered by day, week, month and total.
Know in advance when to change filter cartridges. Too often we tend to realize that they need changing after the water purifier has stopped working or worse, when the water smells bad.
Change filters only when needed. Sometimes filters perform longer than their standard life due to better incoming water or lower usage. Reduce waste and save money.
Quality data collected is aggregated to show real time water quality data to all the community.

TDSBot can be installed on water purifiers from Pentair, Culligan, 3M, Brita, BWT, iSpring, and most other brands. Supports sediment, GAC, Micro, Ultra, Nano and Reverse osmosis filters. It can remotely monitor filters attached to Coffee machines, Ice makers, soda fountains, water dispensers, ovens, laundry & dish washing, car wash found at Cafes, convenient stores, healthcare facilities, hotels, offices, restaurants, colleges, schools, hydroponic systems, and many more.

Learn About Water Quality

* A definition specific to a few codes is that “Safe drinking water” means water that meets all primary and secondary drinking water standards. Drinking water standards are set based on potential health impacts and also take into account the cost to meet the drinking water standard. Also, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines drinking water as safe when humans can drink it with low risk of immediate or long-term harm to your health. Although there may be health risks associated with certain contaminants found in drinking water not all contaminants are necessarily harmful.
