OneMoreFarang Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 What is your or her concern? Getting sick? The taste of the water? Personally I drink bottled water because of the better taste. And I use bottled water to make espresso - for the same reason. But if I cook i.e. potatoes then I use tab water. As far as I know you won't get sick by drinking most of the tab water. But do you actually want to drink it? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowtail Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 If your wife wants to drink bottled water you would do well to look for the most cost effective means of providing it to her. As they say, "choose your battles", and this is an inexpensive on you likely will not win. We have the 19l Singha bottles delivered weekly. It's cheap and they carry them upstairs as well.

scoutman360 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 I have been drinking filtered water from a machine in my condo lobby for 10 years. Always tasted great until last week, it was kind of rancid and I poured it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

internationalism Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 with rainy season water should be less saline. That was the main concern, with warnings in the mass media. In my area it is still very high, but just below unacceptable. The best long term solution is good quality kitchen filter under sink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
