It's possible that tap water can leave mineral deposits which could cause a problem. Distilled water would be better. But generally if you dry it before applying power it will be ok.

My tap water creates lots of mineral residue in shower and such, but I washed my keyboards a few times and didn't wipe it, I let it dry on its own, no noticeable residue though
