Are there still many wells in the countryside now? Can the water in it still work?

Wells that used to be everywhere are now rarely seen, and only a small number of wells still exist in rural areas, so is it better to have water in wells or tap water? I believe that many people will have this doubt, so I will give you an analysis below.

Water pollution

Whether well water or tap water is better depends on the actual local situation and cannot be generalized. In some areas, groundwater pollution is more serious, so you should not choose well water, you should choose tap water, because groundwater will contain a variety of strong carcinogenic chemicals, such as benzene, long-term intake will cause leukemia, lymphoma, cancer.

Water resources in contaminated areas often also contain excessive amounts of heavy metals such as arsenic, lead, cadmium, manganese, etc., which can also lead to cancer. Heavy metals accumulate in the body and can cause disease when the levels reach a certain level. Water containing arsenic and arsenide is one of the causes of liver cancer, kidney cancer, and bladder cancer.

Excessive intake of lead can lead to lead poisoning.

Many people like to drink water that has just been pumped out of the well, which was not a big problem in the past, but now it is very polluted. Drinking contaminated water can also lead to other diseases, such as increased risk of stones, intestinal bacterial infections and parasitic infections. So now there is no guarantee of safety for drinking well water.

The main reason why so many people are keen to drink well water is that it is relatively sweet, warm in winter and cool in summer, very comfortable. So how can we drink safe well water, we can take some samples to the relevant departments for testing, if it meets the drinking standards, you can drink it with peace of mind, but remember to test regularly and boil it to drink.

A lifetime of tap water

Tap water is a series of treatments to meet the national standard of drinking water, which is very secure. It does not contain a lot of heavy metals and chemicals, so it is safe to drink, but it is safer to boil it.

In fact, the water in the waterworks can meet the standard of direct drinking, but after being transported by pipeline, the water will be polluted. When we get to our home, we can't drink it directly, so we still have to boil it obediently, and there is a reason to drink more boiled water!

Now everyone knows how to choose well water and tap water, to endure the pain of love, can not covet the sweetness of well water and give up their health!

It works. At present, there are still many places in the countryside that do not have running water, so they still use well water, whether it is cooking, washing vegetables, washing clothes, etc. The quality of well water is not necessarily worse than tap water, and well water contains some minerals.

There are very few wells in rural areas, and now every household uses running water pipes because it is more convenient to cook and cook, but many rural areas still retain some of the only wells.

Of course, the water in it can be used, but it can't be used for drinking, it can be used for washing and other things.

Now there are no wells in most rural areas, and oil wells are usually used to irrigate the land with well water. However, there are many wells in a few underdeveloped areas, and there is no running water in those areas, so they usually use well water for domestic use.

Can well water in rural areas be drunk directly? This is not a one-size-fits-all question. In some places, the shallow water of factories and enterprises, especially chemical enterprises, is seriously polluted, and well water tens of meters deep is undrinkable.

However, the vast majority of rural areas have no source of pollution, and well water can be used directly for drinking. Take us as an example, for hundreds of years, people have dug a drinking water well ten or eight meters deep, and the water quality is very good, until the past 30 years due to the rapid decline of the groundwater level, it is necessary to drill to 60 or 70 meters below to see the water, and if you drill 100 meters, the 80 pump can not be pumped out, and the water is sweet and clear. Of course, such water may not be drinkable for those who are honorable.

Why can I drink it directly from my hometown?

(1) After several years of investment and transformation in China, the tap water that the rural areas drink now is the same as the tap water in the cities, and some villages are better than the cities. Metaphor: Some villages are far away from the city and cannot be connected to the city's tap water, so they dig wells in their villages to extract tap water.

And this underground river water, its water quality is actually pollution-free mineral water.

(2) Now our country is very strict in the management of rural tap water, and the city, district and county quality inspection bureaus will basically drive to the villages and tap water towers to conduct a water quality test every week. If there is a non-standard in the water quality report, they will notify our village committee and ask for rectification.

(3) In short, China attaches great importance to environmental remediation, especially for tap water, which is of vital importance to human life, whether in urban or rural areas, the management is very strict. Therefore, according to our situation here, I think that rural tap water can be directly drunk, as for some people, they are unwilling to drink rural tap water, willing to buy water to drink, one is because he has money, and the other is because they do not understand China's strict procedures for rural tap water and quality inspection and management, so they are willing to spend money to buy water to drink.

Speaking of the well in the countryside, I can't help but think of the big well in front of our house when I was a child, and this well, it really raised me as a child! And I still clearly remember that when I drank the water from the well, the cool feeling was from head to toe, although the well water in front of our door was slightly salty, but it really had no impurities, let alone pollution!

But since I returned to the city, the old smell of the well in the countryside, it is getting farther and farther away from me! So that later, all I drank in the urban area was the Yellow River water, but whenever I wanted to drink a sip of cold water, as long as the water entered from the mouth, the smell of bleaching powder made me reluctant to drink the second sip, but I still had to drink it, because the city where I am located, all with a rushing Yellow River, nourishes the people of the city, but whenever summer comes, if you really want to drink a sip of cool sweet water, it is simply a pipe dream!

However, as long as I go to the countryside every year, the first thing is to drink a bowl of water from the rural well, and at the same time it is always the original taste.

Yes, the well water I drink is very sweet and delicious, and it also contains some minerals, which is relatively safe and secure.

Well water in rural areas is drinkable; I also know how to drink it, and I think the water in the rural wells is also very sweet.
