It seems like you would get pretty nasty germs happily living in our plumbing (especially untreated well water).
I think about the water that can sit for prolonged periods in hot water tanks, stagnant water in dead end sections of the plumbing system (unused outside faucet etc), and the wet oxygen rich environment inside the faucet ends.
Yet you almost never hear about people getting sick from their water🤷🏽♂️

The purpose of a water tower is not to hold water. It is to create pressure in the pipes causing pressure at the tap/spigot but more importantly so that if a pipe breaks or cracks everything is flowing OUT not in.
