Take it From the Tap!

Choose Tap Water!

Take it From the TAP! (TAP!) encourages the community to choose local tap water as their first drink of choice. TAP! is about creating change through educating our community about where our water comes from, water quality, and the economic, health, and environmental benefits of choosing tap water. 

By choosing tap water you can:

  • Save money
  • Reduce waste
  • Make a healthy choice

Find a Bottle Filling Station Near You!

Santa Rosa Water has been installing water bottle fill stations throughout the community to promote tap water while reducing plastic waste. Water bottle fill stations are similar to drinking fountains but include an overhead filling system, allowing people to fill reusable water bottles easily. Refilling a reusable water bottle multiple times daily is much less expensive than buying plastic bottled water, so don't forget your reusable water bottle when you are out and about around town.
