Interviewer instructions
H09b. Water supply - What is the main source of water used by your household for other domestic purposes, such as cooking and washing?
This section refers to the main source of water available for the use of the household for other domestic purposes (for cooking, washing, bathing, etc.).
01. Pipe-borne into dwelling - This category includes water piped into the living quarters/house through an inside plumbing system.
02. Pipe-borne outside dwelling - Households that use water from a standpipe outside the compound or dwelling must be classified in this category.
03. Public tap / standpipe - This category refers to a public water point from which people can collect water. Public tap or standpipe can have one or more taps and are typically made of brickwork, masonry or concrete.
04. Bore-hole / pump / tube well - This category refers to hand dug or drilled well with pump. It also includes deep holes driven, bored or drilled, with the purpose of reaching groundwater supplies.
05. Protected well - This category refers a hole sunk deep into the earth to reach the water table where water is collected. Protected wells are usually covered with a wooden, concrete or metal slab so that bird droppings and animals cannot fall into the well.
06. Rain water - This category refers to rainwater collected during rainfall into a container for use.
07. Protected spring water - Spring is where water gushes out from underground water sources or flows down slopes along rock or cliff surfaces with a wall constructed (cement or similar) around it to regulate access to and protect the source.
08. Tanker supply / vendor-provided - This category refers to water supplied by tankers.
09. Unprotected well - This is a hole sunk deep into the earth to reach the water table where water is collected. Note that these wells are not covered with anything, thus not protected from dirt.
10. Unprotected spring water - Spring is where water gushes out from underground water sources or flows down slopes along rock or cliff surfaces. Note that in this category no wall is constructed around it. Access to the source is also not regulated.
11. River / stream - This refers to water flowing from its source downstream towards a specific direction.
12. Dugout / pond / lake / dam / canal - This category refers to a surface area dug for collection of rain water or hole in the ground with water or a large sheet of water with land all round it or wall / bank built to keep back the water.
13. Other (specify) - Refers to any other sources of water not specified under 1-12. Indicate 13 in the boxes on the top right corner and record the actual response in the space provided below the response codes.
