Description

Definition

Connection to water network:

This section refers to the types of Housing unit's connection to water resources:

1. Public Network: This category applies to Housing units connected to public water networks belonging to the water company, municipalities, or municipal councils.

2. Private System: This category applies to Housing units connected to a private water resource providing the household with water. Usually, this type is owned by a group of persons.

3. No piped Water: This category applies to Housing units not connected to public water networks nor to private system.

N.B: No piped water does not mean water is unavailable in the Housing unit. But rather water is not provided through a public network nor a private system. Springs and household wells are the major water sources for this type of household.
