Spring Valley is unincorporated East County with hard municipal water and hot inland summers. The mixed 1950s-90s residential stock is at the age where scale damage to water heaters and plumbing is routine. Water hardness here is high enough that scale rings appear on new fixtures within a few months of moving in. Spring Valley sits in the interior of the county and receives water that travels a long way through aging infrastructure before reaching the tap.

Microplastics have been found in municipal water supplies in numerous studies. San Diego has not published specific tap water microplastic data, but the research suggests treated municipal water broadly contains detectable microplastic particles. The health implications are still being studied. What we can do is install certified filtration that reduces particulate contamination at the tap.

A water test is the starting point. Our free in-home test covers common parameters. For a full metals panel including lead, arsenic, chromium, and others, we recommend sending a sample to an independent certified lab. We can advise on which tests make sense based on your plumbing age, local distribution system, and any utility advisories.
