Is it the suspicious barrels outside?

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 26 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (2 children)

I have one of the larger barrels pictured. It's a 68G that I pump water up from the creek into for bathing, washing up, etc. Throw a couple of the small chlorine tabs in there, good to go. Just don't drink it.

Mine came from imported Kalamata olives. Kinda greasy to clean out, excellent water storage. Money says that was the intention for those. 300+ gallons of water lasts forever if you have a creek to tap. I fill my 68 every month in the summer, and that's only because it has a slow leak.

The property has a 500 gallon water tank.

Am I really bathing if I’m using water I cannot drink?

Am I really bathing if I’m using still-undrinkable—but chlorinated—water?

Yes, drinking water is cleaned to the point that it will not make you sick to drink assuming a normal immune system. That is extreme over kill for bathing (and toilets, laundry, etc). The only reason we use drinking water for everything is because infrastructure is expensive and laying non-potable water pipes would cost tons.
