Water pumps question.

[MickyWallopNutz 0]

Is it true that the water that comes from water pumps in villages is always clean and doesn’t need to be purified?  
 

ive been filling canteens up from them but always use water purification tablets in them but I’ve read the water from them is always clean with no chance of getting sick?  Can anyone confirm. Thanks

my understanding is that all pumps are good now i dont purify at them but do recommend filling and then emptying to rinse out a bottle u havent used and found... seems to be good

 

although i have a canteen i had chorinated and rinsed but 5x in a row i got sick right after drinking it someone said its a bug that everytime u drink from it it gets dirty again so i dont know lol

Well water is clean and no need to rinse containers.

Always empty or purify water thats in a container you just found as it can make you sick.

Purify all water from barrels, puddles, ponds and streams for the same reason.
