Because tap water that has not been purified is contaminated with all sorts of bacteria and harmful stuff would drinking 4 to 6 liters of tap water that is not purified be extremely dangerous enough to make you dangerously sick to the point where it would result in having to take a ride in a ambulance and be presented to the emergency room because I have read online about the dangers of drinking tap water that is not purified and that why it’s very important to purify it by using a reverse osmosis or by boiling it on a stove top

If you let the tap water run and a clear glass should be ok. Once I'm a while. Or bottled water not that expensive. Try a dollar store cheaper.

Drinking water should always be purified.

Boiling is one of the most commonly used techniques to purify water; it is recommended to boil water for at least 1 minute to eliminate microorganisms.

Another way is to use iodine purification. The water should stand for 30 minutes and should not be below 5 °C.

Purification by chlorine (bleach): you should only use two drops per liter of water (depending on the concentration of household chlorine), administering it gradually. Then cover the container, shake and let it stand for at least 30 minutes.

For not only microorganisms but also other residues, water purification filters will serve to separate insoluble particles that are harmful to our health, being installed directly in the tap, absorbing and eliminating contaminants, microorganisms or minerals. Although there are variants according to each need, the most popular filters to purify water at home are those made of activated carbon and ceramic, which help to eliminate unpleasant tastes and bad odors.

Drinking tap water directly is not really safe . It should always be either boiled or filtered before drinking to kill the germs in it

Purified water is water that has been processed to remove contaminants like dirt and chemicals. In many countries, tap water is purified to make it safe for human consumption.

It is very important that the water is always purified through filters that eliminate certain contaminants such as carbon and other components, all so that we can consume it without the risk of getting sick.

Tap water in countries like Singapore is good to drink. There is no need to purify it . but it is not the case in different countries, so boil the water, use purifiers, do chlorination, reverse osmosis.

Drinking tap water that has not been purified can be dangerous, as it can contain bacteria and other contaminants that can make you sick. It is important to purify tap water before drinking it, either by using a reverse osmosis system or by boiling it. If you have consumed tap water that has not been purified, it is important to seek medical attention if you experience any symptoms of illness.
