Why did you turn on the tap when you entered the hotel?

After entering the hotel, turn on the faucet to drain water for the following reasons:

1. If the faucet is not turned on for a long time, it is easy to breed bacteria. Draining water before turning on the faucet can remove the accumulated scale and impurities, and discharge the accumulated bacteria and other pollutants in the outlet pipe, so that the tap water can reach better water quality after flowing through the pipeline.

2. In order to save water, some hotels don't check the water quality in the water pipes, so they can avoid drinking directly with unclean water in the pipes.

3. The water quality is different in different areas, and sediment accumulation or water pipe blockage may lead to poor water quality. When draining water, you can avoid using this water directly for drinking or use.

In a word, in order to ensure the health and safety of drinking water and life, we should develop the good habit of turning on the tap after entering the hotel room.
