We did drink the city water for years. AFTER it went through filters and UV. Never had a problem. Then NO more street water; now for several years. We put in a well that has real nasty water. Installed a couple of filters with a UV and RO systems into the cistern with old system still used as it is pumped into the house. Over 5 years with NO city water and NO having to carry water. Whole house including ice makers have clean water.
We also harvest rain water with a few easy/cheap/simple systems that goes into the cistern. The rain this year has cut our well and RO systems down a lot. Our water is 99.??? pure and the PPM is very good.
Not sure what our teeth are doing but at our age... happy to have any.
I remember some 10 or more years ago a truck with 5 gallon bottles filling the bottles from a hose connected to street water. They put a top on and plastic and used a heat gun to make them look "factory fresh" and loaded for delivery.
Good luck everyone.
