The water pipe in the washbasin in the hotel says "indirect drinking water". Can this water be boiled and drunk?

Yes, "indirect drinking water" refers to tap water that cannot be directly drunk.

Experts point out that it is better for normal people to drink boiled water and mineral water every day. Mineral water contains minerals needed by human body, which can supplement human body's needs and is more suitable for normal people to drink than pure water. Boiling water easily penetrates the cell membrane and enters cells, which promotes human metabolism, enhances human immune function and improves human disease resistance. It is the most suitable drinking water for human body.

Relatively direct drinking water, also known as direct drinking water or healthy running water, refers to water that is pollution-free, non-degradable, can be directly drunk, meets human physiological needs (contains beneficial mineral elements similar to human body), and has a weak alkaline pH value.

Direct drinking water is generally filtered and disinfected to kill viruses and bacteria in the water, and filter out impurities, residual chlorine, organic matter, heavy metals and other pollutants in the water. After the water body is electrified and mineralized, the water quality reaches the drinking standard and is rich in minerals.

Let the tap water run for a while before boiling.
