¿Se puede beber el agua del grifo?
Sin duda alguna. El agua del grifo es potable, o sea, agua que pueden ingerir las personas sin riesgo para su salud.
-
Si el agua de mi casa, de repente, tiene una apariencia, sabor u olor desagradable, ¿se puede beber?
En el caso en el que, de forma puntual, tu agua salga turbia, con un sabor u olor desagradables, te recomendamos que te pongas en contacto con nuestro servicio de atención al cliente.
-
¿Es necesario instalar dispositivos domésticos como los descalcificadores o filtros de ósmosis inversa para mejorar la calidad del agua?
El agua del grifo es potable y cumple todas las normativas de calidad establecidas por la legislación. Por ello, no es necesario adquirir ningún dispositivo adicional para tratar esta agua. Sí que hay que señalar que si no se eligen adecuadamente estos dispositivos, no se controlan regularmente y no se hace el mantenimiento recomendado, podrían aparecer riesgos para la salud (contaminación por bacterias, desmineralización excesiva del agua, concentraciones elevadas de sodio, etc.).

¿Qué es el cloro?
El cloro es el desinfectante de agua más utilizado en el mundo, por su efectividad y fiabilidad para eliminar todo tipo de microbios nocivos que puedan contener el agua, las tuberías de suministro o los depósitos de almacenamiento. El cloro que se añade al agua de consumo humano es una dosis mínima de garantía sanitaria –marcada por la legislación– totalmente inofensivo para la salud de las personas.
Por ello, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) lo recomienda como desinfectante más indicado para el agua.
De hecho, la cloración del agua potable es uno de los avances más significativos en la protección de la salud pública.
-
¿Por qué la cloración es la técnica desinfectante más utilizada en el mundo para potabilizar el agua?
Porque es el método que mejor garantiza la desinfección del agua hasta que ésta llega a los grifos de los consumidores, impidiendo que proliferen los agentes patógenos en los depósitos de almacenamiento y las tuberías de suministro, y por su más que comprobada inocuidad en las concentraciones utilizadas. Por ello, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) lo recomienda como el desinfectante más indicado para el agua.
-
¿Qué cantidad de cloro contiene el agua del grifo?
Según la normativa estatal vigente, la concentración de cloro en el agua para consumo humano no debe superar 1 mg/l, si bien se trata de un parámetro indicativo. Aunque la legislación estatal no establece ningún valor mínimo para el cloro libre, diferentes comunidades autónomas lo han fijado a través de sus planes de vigilancia, en la mayoría de los casos, en un valor de 0,2 mg/l.
Teniendo en cuenta que el cloro desaparece en función del tiempo de residencia en el agua y de la temperatura, entre otros factores, su nivel se controla por toda la red de distribución. De ese modo, si durante el recorrido hasta los hogares de los consumidores, el nivel de este componente baja del límite indicativo establecido, desde la propia red de distribución se dosifican pequeñas cantidades de cloro (recloraciones) para garantizar la calidad sanitaria del agua.
-
¿Es perjudicial para la salud?
La OMS señala que, en las concentraciones establecidas por la legislación, el cloro es totalmente inofensivo para la salud. Las concentraciones máximas de este componente en el agua del grifo establecidas por esta organización garantizan que no conlleve ningún riesgo para la salud.
De hecho, la cloración del agua potable es uno de los avances más significativos en la protección de la salud pública ya que, por su alto poder letal contra bacterias y otros microorganismos, ha contribuido a prevenir y erradicar muchas enfermedades de transmisión hídrica. La presencia de una dosis correcta de cloro después del tratamiento del agua no comporta ningún riesgo para la salud y confiere al agua un efecto de protección ante contaminantes, además de ser un indicador de su correcta desinfección.

¿Por qué yo noto un sabor que no me gusta en el agua y otras personas no?
El agua contiene ciertas sustancias disueltas, que se han incorporado en la naturaleza, que le confieren un sabor característico. Esto es lo natural. Estas sustancias disueltas dependen principalmente, entre otros factores, del origen del agua (subterráneo, superficial o marino) y de la composición geológica del terreno por la que discurre el agua.
El sabor se nota al cambiar de tipo de agua, pues pasamos de un agua a la que estamos acostumbrados a otra a la que no lo estamos.
-
¿Qué origina la dureza del agua?
El agua adquiere el calcio y magnesio que determinan su dureza en su contacto con los distintos tipos de terrenos por los que circula el río o el acuífero de donde procede. Por lo tanto, el grado de dureza del agua depende del carácter geológico del suelo que atraviesa en su origen. Así, un suelo calizo genera mayores contenidos de cal que un suelo granítico.
-
¿Las aguas duras son buenas para la salud?
La dureza del agua del grifo no supone ningún peligro para la salud humana, sino todo lo contrario: el calcio y el magnesio que caracterizan la dureza del agua son esenciales para la salud.
Una dieta rica en calcio es fundamental para la formación y el mantenimiento del tejido óseo, el funcionamiento correcto del sistema cardiovascular y la secreción de hormonas. Con la edad, se puede producir una pérdida de masa ósea y aparecen problemas de osteoporosis, que se pueden paliar, en parte, con una ingesta elevada de calcio.
En la actualidad, el agua se ha convertido en una fuente significativa de ingesta de calcio, considerando que el consumo de lácteos ha disminuido. Así, el consumo diario de ente 1 y 1,5 litros de agua del grifo aporta entre un 7% y un 15% de la cantidad diaria recomendada de este nutriente. Además, el calcio desempeña un papel importante desde el punto de vista de los requerimientos nutricionales diarios de los niños, y se estima que el agua del grifo aporte entre el 15% y el 20% del calcio diario necesario en la dieta de los niños y los adolescentes.
El magnesio es indispensable para numerosas funciones celulares, así como para la mineralización ósea, la trasmisión de la actividad neuromuscular y del sistema nervioso central, y la función cardíaca. Una ingesta de entre 1 y 1,5 litros de agua del grifo de , aporta entre un 5% y un 20% de la cantidad diaria recomendada de magnesio.
-
¿Cómo se mide la dureza del agua?
La dureza del agua se suele expresar a través de la concentración carbonato cálcico (CaCO3) del agua.
Por ello, según el grado de dureza, existen diferentes clasificaciones de las aguas. Una de las más utilizadas es la escala Merck:
0 – 79 mg CaCO3/l…………………………. Agua muy blanda
80 – 149 mg CaCO3/l…………………… Agua blanda
150 – 329 mg CaCO3/l…………………… Agua semidura
330 – 549 mg CaCO3/l…………………… Agua dura
Más de 550 mg CaCO3/l……………….. Agua muy duraLa dureza del agua también se puede expresar en grados franceses (ºFH) o en grados alemanes (ºDH). La equivalencia entre estas unidades y la dureza expresada en mg/l de carbonato cálcico es la siguiente:
1 ºFH = 10 mg CaCO3/l
1 ºDH = 17,8 mg CaCO3/l -
Necesito saber la dureza del agua para programar el lavavajillas, ¿dónde la puedo consultar?

Is 1.5 litres of water a day enough?
It’s difficult to establish the exact amount of water that a person should drink a day, as their needs can vary depending upon a number of factors, such as physical activity, the climate, age and gender, amongst others.
The recommended consumption for healthy adults is 1 ml of water per kilocalorie ingested per day: in other words, between 2 and 3 litres a day.
Of this amount, between 75 and 80% should be obtained from drinks (mainly water, milk, juices, teas and infusions, broths and soups, etc.), whilst the remaining 20 or 25% should come from solid foods such as fruit and vegetables.
-
Do you know how you should start and end the day?
When we sleep, we lose water. This is why it is recommendable to drink at least one glass before bed and another on getting up.
-
Why do we need to be properly hydrated?
When we sweat, our bodies lose water and mineral salts. Ninety-nine per cent of sweat is just water but it also contains minerals such as sodium, potassium, iron and magnesium.
Proper hydration allows us to restore the water levels our body needs to prevent a number of ailments, such as vomiting, headaches, tiredness, dry skin, etc., which are all symptoms of dehydration.
-
Do you know why you shouldn't wait until you are thirsty to drink water?
The water our bodies lose every day (more than 2 litres of it) must be replaced as soon as possible to prevent the dehydration process from starting.
That’s why it’s so important not to wait until you feel thirsty, as this is itself a symptom of dehydration.
-
Should we drink more water if we exercise?
Drinking half a litre of water two hours before exercising is vital to ensure proper hydration and give the body time to eliminate the excess water drunk.
Whilst exercising, it’s advisable to drink at regular intervals, to replace all the water you lose when sweating. After exercise, it is important to drink to ensure you recover properly.
-
Is tap water good for an elite athlete?
Yes, water is good for an elite athlete and indeed anyone who enjoys sport.
-
Can children drink water from the tap?
Tap water is healthy for both adults and kids. It is important for kids to take compulsory breaks during training or games to drink enough water for hydration purposes.
-
Do the elderly need to drink more?
It is important for older people to monitor their water consumption as, with age, changes occur to the kidney function and the feeling of thirst decreases significantly.
-
Do you that it is advisable to drink more water if you have the flu or diarrhoea?
The common cold, the flu and diarrhoea often lead to dehydration, so you need to drink water regularly in such cases.
Rational use of water and sewerage
-
Why is better to have a shower than a bath?
It’s better to shower; however, every minute we spend in the shower with the water can use up to 10 litres of water.
-
Which plants need the least watering?
Plants needing the least watering are shrubs, and local and hardy plants. These are just as attractive as other plants but consume less water.
-
What’s the best time for watering the garden?
First thing in the morning or at evening time, as you’ll make better use of the water, which doesn't evaporate so quickly then.
-
After use, where should I dispose of cooking oil?
You should remove oil from frying pans using absorbent paper and throw it in the rubbish or, once cold, pour it into a watertight plastic container and take it to a waste collection point for recycling. Don’t pour it down the sink, because oil and water don’t mix and it is very difficult to eliminate it at wastewater treatment plants.
-
Why shouldn't you throw paint away by pouring it down the sink?
It’s not recommended, because paint is a highly polluting substance. We would advise that you leave it to dry until it is a solid lump and then take it to your local municipal waste collection facility.
-
What about cigarette butts: can I throw them down the toilet?
Please don’t throw your butts down the toilet: they contain nicotine and tar, substances that dissolve easily in water but are pollutants, even at small concentrations, and are difficult to eliminate during the treatment process. Throw your used cigarettes away with your rubbish, after they are properly extinguished.
-
What else shouldn't I throw away down the toilet?
Wet wipes, medicines, earbuds, plastic, gauze, sanitary pads and condoms shouldn't be thrown down the toilet because, after they are flushed away, they can block pipes and affect the ability of wastewater to enter treatment plants. We recommend that you put a small bin in the bathroom for this kind of solid waste.

I don't understand the water bill, what exactly do you pay?
Contracts for the registration of drinking water supply are subject to the corresponding rates based on current legislation. Generally, the service bill usually includes the water and sewerage rates, of which in the vast majority of cases the owner is the service concessionaire. On the other hand, environmental taxes are also included, in concept of Canons, whose owner is the autonomous community, and finally, it can also include the garbage tax, with municipal ownership. Therefore, the final amount of the bill, generally between 35% and 50%, corresponds to the water rate, the rest being divided between taxes (VAT), tributes, etc.
Likewise, in the invoice of your supply address, both the information of the different application concepts in which you can identify their ownership, as well as the information of the publications in the official gazettes of the rates that apply is included, for your consultation in case you deem it necessary.
If you want to receive more information or make any questions, please contact us through the Customer Service channels.

Can I request a change of periodicity or frequency for my invoice?
There is the possibility of a monthly payment method (12 GOTAS), through which a fixed fee is paid each month and after 12 months the situation is regularized based on actual billing. This new payment method does not imply any contractual change. The meter is read and invoiced with the same regularity as always. You can review the conditions of the Plan and how to contract it in the corresponding section of the website.

- Receipt of payment of the deposit if paid (if applicable).
-
What should I do to check for a leak at home?
Here are the steps you must follow:
- First, you need to locate your water meter. Enter the building's meter room. In the battery of meters there is a map where you can find the location of your meter.
- Next, check that the meter works correctly. To do this, leave a tap running at home or at your premises. The red needle on the large dial or the last red figure on the counter (if electronic) must move upwards. Keeping the tap open, close the stopcock of the meter and check that it does not register any movement.
- To finish, open the tap again and close all the taps in the house for about an hour. See if the meter has registered water consumption. If so, it is very possible that there is a leak in the installation, since the meter only records consumption if water passes through it.
-
Who should I call if I have a water leak?
If you have a leak, you should contact a plumber or specialized company or check if your home insurance covers these types of repairs. We remind you that the conservation and repair of any breakdown in the interior facilities is the responsibility of the user, as established in the Water Service Regulations.
-
Who should I call if my or the community drain has a fault or obstruction before reaching the main street sewer line?
When the sewer connection is blocked or damaged, either in the interior installation or in the sewer pipeline, the person in charge is the owner of the property or home that uses it. It is necessary to evacuate the dirty water to the general discharge network or to the municipal sewer system. You must contact a private company to unclog the waste discharge pipes.
-
I don't have water at home. What do I do?
- First of all, find out if the lack of water affects all the water points in your house. If so, contact a neighbor to find out if the incident is general. If the neighbors are not affected, check that the internal stopcock in your house is completely open.
- Next, check that the meter or measuring equipment has both stopcocks open (that is, turned all the way to the left). Remember that to locate your water meter you have to enter the meter room with the universal key, which is generally in the portal or in the hall of the farm. In the battery of meters there is a map where you can find the location of your meter.
- If after having made these checks you are still without water, call us on our breakdown number and we will do everything possible to help you.
-
They have recently fixed a water fault on the street and now I don't have enough pressure at home. What I do?
Sometimes, while a leak occurs or during its repair, it is possible that the same water pressure can drag small particles of sand from the general pipes and also from the private ones of the farm. Fortunately, it is not a serious matter. In most cases, a few minutes after the repair of the external fault, the supply should return to normal, recovering the normal pressure. However, if you still do not have the usual pressure, call us on our breakdown number and we will do everything possible to help you.
-
I have no water pressure at home. What should I do?
- Check that the internal stopcock in your house is completely open. If you have a pressure reducing device installed, check that it works correctly.
- Next, check that the meter or measuring equipment has both stopcocks open (that is, turned all the way to the left). Remember that to locate your water meter you have to enter the meter room with the universal key, which is generally in the portal or in the hall of the farm. In the battery of meters there is a map where you can find the location of your meter.
- If after having made these checks you are still without pressure, call us at our breakdown number and we will do everything possible to help you.
-
I have no pressure in the hot water in my house. What should I do?
Remember that the water company only supplies you with running water through the general distribution network. That is, it is cold water. Open any tap in the house and check that the cold water has the usual pressure. If not, check the internal stopcock, and that the meter or measuring equipment has both stopcocks open (that is, turned fully counterclockwise). Remember that to locate your water meter you have to enter the meter room with the universal key, which is generally in the portal or in the hall of the farm. In the battery of meters there is a map where you can find the location of your meter. If you still don't have pressure in the hot water, contact a plumber or your home insurance company to verify the installation and the hot water circuit.
-
What do I need to register in the customer area?
