Description<\/strong><\/h3>\n

With Self-supply water sources it is strongly advised to use some kind of Household Water Treatment.<\/p>\n

Advantages compared to not using treatment<\/strong><\/h3>\n
    \n
  • – Hard to predict if water from a Self-supply source is safe to drink.<\/li>\n
  • – With treatment of a good WHO recommended treatment product\u00a0water is safe to drink.<\/li>\n
  • – By treating no need to test the\u00a0water quality<\/li>\n
  • – By treating the water Self-supply\u00a0will be more acceptable, easier to\u00a0support by Governments and NGOs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Disadvantages compared to not using a treatment<\/strong><\/h3>\n
      \n
    • – Although cheap, treatment cost\u00a0money<\/li>\n
    • \u2013 Options like PUR, WaterGuard,\u00a0Wa Ufa require discipline of treating\u00a0every day. If there is no consistent use, a treatment does not have\u00a0health effects.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Boiling<\/strong><\/h3>\n

      This is the simplest and most safe way of treatment but has its disadvantages like cost of fuel and\u00a0 indoor pollution<\/p>\n

      Cloth<\/strong><\/h3>\n

      A low cost option is filtering through a double cloth which can reduce bacteria with 90%.<\/p>\n
