Surely the many miles of underground pipes are a breeding ground for microbes, right?

I work for a water treatment company in the UK and we have ditched chlorine a few years back in favour of charcoal and ultraviolet light treatment as these are less harmful and cheaper to use and highly efficient. I can only speak for the region I work in as I’m sure some places still use chlorine. We start by removing any solid matter from the water course via filtration and once the solids are removed we then focus on killing off any harmful bacteria and pathogens with charcoal and then through ultraviolet treatment. This is then pumped to town reservoirs for people to use.

to ‘breed’ bacteria need something to feed on.

water in the pipes is filtered and aeriated which kills or retards microbes that would persist in the otherwise airless water.

municiple water systems actually have microbes well under control normally.

these days we have to consider lead, arsenic, other toxic metals and certain forever chemicals like fire retardants.
