Health Risk

Pathogens, such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium, are often found in surface water, and can cause gastrointestinal and other health risks. Cryptosporidium is particularly concerning in drinking water because it is resistant to chlorine and other disinfectants and has caused waterborne disease outbreaks. Consuming water with Cryptosporidium can cause gastrointestinal illness, which may be severe or fatal for sensitive populations (infants, the elderly or individuals with immunocompromised systems).
