WATER SUPPLY AFLOAT
RAISED FRAME TO KEEP WATER OUT

coaming
process of distilling plant forms, including evaporation and condensation
distillation
chlorine available in the forms of hypochlorous acid and hypochlorite ions

micron
treatment device applied to a single tap used for the purpose of reducing contaminants in drinking water at the tap
Point of Use (POU)
water suitable for human consumption, bathing, laundry, personal hygiene
potable water
achieved by external application of sufficient reverse pressure to cause the solvent to flow in its unnatural direction
Reverse Osmisis
test used to detect total coliform and E-coli in potable water
colilert. Colisure
group of closely related, mostly harmless bacteria that live in soil and water as well as animal guts.
indicate general quality of water and likelihood that water is contaminated with fecal matter
