Are public water fountains hygenic?
How do we know?
Answers: Hello:
No,because ALOT of people drink from them that may have some kind of cold or contagious diesease and public fountains are HARDLY EVER cleaned at all if ever.Plus,who knows where the water is coming from in a public water fountain? I wouldn't risk it personally,I would just carry my own bottled water if it were me! ;-) Source(s):
Nurse and Mother Hmm... I would never drink from them.. I never drink from these things. I'd rather be thirsty. Buy a bottle of water when you're out if possible.
Even if you don't let your mouth touch the spout, as you say, what's the water quality like? Definitely not. The water is not treated. most of the time public water fountains aren't hygenic because some people pee into it, animals dropping such as birds, pollution, etc..
