Potable water is water that is suitable for use as drinking water, whereas drinking water is water that is utilised in the preparation of food or beverages. Depending on factors including physical activity level, age, health-related diseases, and environmental factors, different amounts of drinking water are necessary to maintain good health. Up to 16 litres of water per day may be necessary for people who work in hot climates.

Washing, using the restroom, and irrigation are some more usual applications for tap water. Greywater can also be utilised for irrigation or toilet flushing. The use of it for irrigation, however, can come with concerns.
