Question 2 - Does the dwelling have running water?
[There is an image of box for question 2]
The difference between the public and private water supply systems is based on the ownership of the system. A public water supply system normally requires a payment based on water use as read by a meter.
Public water supply - when water is supplied in exchange for payment based on the consumption indicated on the meter.
Private water supply - when the water is property of a particular person(s);
When the dwelling has water piped in to only an outside installation, for example, a kitchen or bathhouse located in the patio you must record in one of the "yes" options depending upon it being public or private.
No, but there is running water in the building - when the dwelling does not have running water within it, but it does exist within the building. This could include situations in which the dwelling has running water in the patio, but not within any of the rooms (kitchen, bathroom, ?);
No running water is available - when there is no running water in the dwelling or the building.
