Question 5: Does this household have:
A toilet connected to a sewage network?; toilet connected to a septic tank?; toilet that drains into a river, ditch, lagoon, sea, or lake?; a latrine with a simple well?; does not have? Mark only one box.
If there are doubts, remember that:
- Toilet connected to a sewage system: This is when the toilet waste and sewage waters are cleaned water under pressure arriving by pipes or with a bucket of water which discharges to a network of a sewage system.
- Toilet connected to a septic tank: This is when the toilet wastes and sewage water are cleaned with water at pressure, arriving with pressure through pipes or with a bucket of water is discharged to a deposit built for this.

- Toilet that discharges into a river, ditch, lagoon, sea, or lake: This is when the excretions and sewage waters are cleaned by water under pressure that arrives through pipelines or a bucket of water and discharge directly to the river, ditch, lagoon, sea or lake.
- Latrine with a simple well: This consists of a rather deep hole over which a cement or wood toilet is built.
- Does not have: When the household does not have a system for eliminating excretions. If you mark this option, continue with question 7.
