How do you drink your water at home?

Straight out of the tap?
Boiled?
Filtered?
Purified water service?

Oh and if your avatar doesn't say, let me know which city you are in.

TIA

we boil it, then before we go to sleep, let it cool out through the night.
then each morning, we pour it into a container in the fridge.

if theres none of this, i drink from the tap

Surprised so many boil their water even though we've got the purest tap water in the world (Canada as a country has the second best)


Some of the world's cleanest drinking water

the water may be clean from the reservoirs, but does not take into account when it runs through kilometres of old piping into your glass you'll be drinking from.

Has to be bottled. Could boil but lazy. Vietnam.

Whenever I get back home I always make a point to drink a ton of water from the Tap. BTW I think water on the lower mainland tastes better than other water I have had in Canada. Serious.

Are those Japanese Ionized water machines actually as good as they say they are?
