Provenance of the water: source and system of supplying water that the household uses for drinking and cooking. In the case that the household is supplied by more than one source, you should consider the source that predominates in the daily household use. The categories are:
-public network (running water): a system for collecting, treating, and distributing the water through a network of community pipes that is submitted to the inspection and control of the public authorities. The system can be under the charge of a public organism, cooperative, or private company.
-drilled well with a motor pump: a system for collection that consists of the extraction of water from deep reserves, through the use of a motorized mechanical elevation system.
- drilled well with a manual pump: a system for collection that consists of the extraction of water from deep reserves, through the use of a manual mechanical elevation system.
-well: a system for collection that consists of the extraction of water from superficial reserves, through the use of a mechanical elevation system (that can be manual or motorized) or though the use of a bucket or similar (without using mechanical elevation systems).
-cystern transportation: supply though a tank truck, a water train, etc.
-water from rain, river, channel, ditch or spring: supply of water from rain, rivers, channels, ditches, or springs.
