<br /><span class="em">Private water supply </span>- when the water is property of a particular person(s);
<br />When the dwelling has water piped in to only an outside installation, for example, a kitchen or bathhouse located in the patio you must record in one of the "yes" options depending upon it being public or private.
<br /><span class="em">No, but there is running water in the building </span>- when the dwelling does not have running water within it, but it does exist within the building. This could include situations in which the dwelling has running water in the patio, but not within any of the rooms (kitchen, bathroom, ?);
