Hi benjierosario, It all depends on which country you're living in. In most developed countries it is safe to drink directly from the tap as the water producers have to conform to WHO standards before they are allowed to distribute the water for public consumption. So check which country you're in before you start drinking from the tap! Hey, that reminds me. I'm feeling thirty. Time to take a drink from the tap. Have a good day.

Tap water should be tested, many regulations are in place. I donèt drink my tap water because it has so many chemicals. When it comes out of the tap it smells like a swimming pool.

I don't drink tap water because it tastes horrible and has chemicals in it but if you do you should use a filter just to make sure.
