When asking these questions, keep in mind that they consist of one main question and 2 sub-questions, which should be asked in the manner that is explained in the instructions corresponding to each of these questions.
Question Number 8: Where is drinking water obtained from?
Read the question and then the options given as they appear in the questionnaire. Keep in mind that when the response is that water is taken from the Public Water System of the IDAAN, from the Community Public Water System or from a Private Water System it should also be asked if water is taken from installations "Within the Dwelling" or "Outside of the Dwelling". Mark a single circle according to the response of the person.
Keep in mind that this question refers to water for drinking and not for cleaning or for doing other necessities of the dwelling.
a. Public water system of the IDAAN (Circles 01 or 04):
A system through which the inhabitants are supplied drinking water by means of branch lines of pipes that can be installed within or outside of the dwelling, and that are administrated by the IDAAN.
b. Community public water system (Circles 02 or 05):
When the water that the occupants of the dwelling drink is provided by a public water system administrated by the community of another entity. The installations can be within or outside of the dwelling.
c. Private water system (Circles 03 or 06):
When the occupants of the dwelling are supplied water provided from a private system for exclusive use of the dwelling. The installations can be within or outside of the dwelling.
d. Sanitary Well (Circle 07):
When the water that the occupants of the dwelling drink is provided from a sanitary well that is public or private with a pump to extract water. The pump can be manual, motorized or by windmill. Include the protected or covered springs.
e. Mark the circle that corresponds, when the water that the occupants of the dwelling drink is not obtained from a public water system. Nor private, nor sanitary well, but rather from an unprotected spring (Circle 8), from rain water (Circle 9), from a surface well (Circle 10), from a river or gully (Circle 11), or from a cistern truck (Circle 12).
When the dwelling has instillations for getting water from the IDAAN, but because of a shortage of members of the home they obtain water principally from a cistern truck, Circle 12 (cistern truck) should be marked.

Example:
When enumerating the dwelling of Mr. Tomás González located in the Administrative Unit Tocumen, he says that they get their drinking water for a water system of the IDAAN, but because the water only comes two days a week, there is a cistern truck that distributes water every day in the morning. The response will be written down as:
