The pump has its own meter and uses about 10-11k per month, we charge the neighbours 150 pesos per month for the first 10 cubic metres then so much per cubic metre after that. Well, I suppose it will be free once the installation costs have been fully recouped. Presumably they have ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some plumbers here right now and there is some really dirty crap coming out of the pipes. These particular pipes are probably 20 years old. I will stick with bottled water! Good idea. I wouldn't drink the tap water unless water from your taps tested clean. Even if the water company is producing potable water there is no guarantee that it is not picking up bad stuff like lead or bacteria in the pipes somewhere between the water plant and your house.

jimeve Posted June 29, 2019 Posted June 29, 2019 I would never drink tap water here. Not worth getting your liver or kidneys damaged. Price for a 5 gallon of water, I pay 25 pesos delivered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary D Posted June 29, 2019 Posted June 29, 2019 The water is boiled during the beer making process that's why in the olden days beer was drunk in preference to drinking the water. Children were given weak beer hence the term small beer. Call me sceptical but I wouldn't trust the water from the water stations either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
