Household drinking and domestic water sources

Properties of water used for domestic consumption. Drinking water should be clean and free from toxic and filthy minerals. The term "clean water" refers to water that is safe and clean. "Safe" means that when humans consume it, it must not cause disease or any danger to physical health. Sources of water for domestic consumption include: 1. Rainwater, classified as the cleanest and purest water, but in some places it is not suitable for drinking because during rainfall, certain gases such as sulfur dioxide may be mixed in if the area is an industrial factory. 2. Surface water, including water from rivers, streams, lakes, ponds, canals, and marshes, which dissolves various minerals as the water flows through, making the water dirty. 3. Groundwater, including water from wells and boreholes, which is mostly clean and free from contamination by human and animal waste, but may sometimes contain dissolved iron.
