My Mom just had 2 of her bathroom moderately remodeled. Looked to do a nice job, however, when brushing my teeth with water from the new faucet, the water came out with strong plastic/metallic taste - it was not palatable, and I noticed permeated my too brush bristles and even my hand/skin - and stayed on it. When I checked water from our older faucets, no such taste or fragrance, so I believe it to be the building materials installed in the piping/faucet. The faucet itself is a "Delta" brand and the piping underneath looks like PVC or PEX plastic. I read that the taste will fade, but worried that it is unhealthy, and whether the piping or faucet or both.
Any experience with this?
Suffice to say will not be brushing my teeth in those bathrooms anymore.
Kinda reminds me years ago of using CamelBak water packs and having a totally unpalatable plastic taste coming from the reservoir - to the point of inability to use.
I dont drink from our taps in general but this is too much - feels like nobody did their homework on this. Gonna have to confront mother about this.
