Household drinking and water sources

Characteristics of water used for domestic and public supply. Drinking water should be clean, free from toxic minerals and impurities. The term "clean water" means water that is safe and clean. "Safe" means water that, when consumed by humans, does not cause disease or any danger to physical health. Sources of water for domestic and public supply include: 1. Rainwater: Considered the cleanest and purest water, but in some areas it may not be suitable for drinking because certain gases, such as sulfur dioxide, may be present during rainfall, especially if the area has industrial factories. 2. Surface water: Includes water from rivers, streams, lakes, ponds, canals, and swamps. These waters dissolve various minerals as they flow, making the water dirty. 3. Groundwater: Includes water from wells and boreholes. Most of this water is clean and free from contamination by human and animal waste, but sometimes dissolved iron may be present.
