However, there are some concerns about its contents. One concern is limescale, caused by minerals such as calcium and magnesium present in the water. While not unhealthy to drink, some people choose to filter their tap water to reduce its presence. Another concern is the presence of toxic chemicals such as PFAS,<\/a> also known as \u201cforever chemicals\u201d.
