The well provides water for bathing, washing, toilet flushing, etc. It is more or less safe to drink after passing through our basement water treatment plant, but my DW says that it still has a funky taste so we drink the bottled water.
Note that our treatment system does *not* have a reverse-osmosis filter. My DW says that those filters are ineffective against bacteria.
One of our regional grocery chains carries 4-gallon water cooler jugs for less than the home delivery company, so my DW picks up a jug or two (weigh ~35 pound each) while shopping to supplement the delivered jugs.....

Tx for the info. Haha re your dog, I had a rabbit like that, only gave her bottled water but one day I ran out and tried to give her tap in the meantime, she stopped after two slurps, simply REFUSED to drink further so here I was throwing on some clothes to run to the nearby grocers to fetch her favorite brand. It was a LMAO moment. Fancypants bunny. I miss her.
Ok, so does it suck having to arrange bottled water since you have well access? It would bother me but I guess it's not feasible at all where you live to make the well water drinkable?
