The top 10 countries according to this index providing best quality tap water to their citizens are given below.

Drinking tap water in New Zealand is not a bad idea. Despite being in the tenth position on this list, the tap water in this country was considered as one of the cleanest and safest in the whole world.

9. Germany


Rothenburg ob der Tauber - Plönlein
Germany is ninth on this list of ten countries. The reason for this is the high quality standards that this country follows in its water treatment plants.

8. Sweden

Stockholm is the capital of Sweden and is also one the best places in the world where you could find clean tap water for drinking. The reason for this is the two water treatment plants which supply clean tap water to the 1.3 million residents of the city. These plants are situated in Norsborg and Lovo. Both the plants use the latest technology for the treatment of water, so that best quality tap water could be readily supplied to the people of the city.

You would really get a clean, fresh, and safe supply of water, when you turn your taps in Britain.

The water regulations in the country are based on the EU drinking water directive and on the advice of the World Health Organization.

6. Italy

The tap water which is provided in Italy is of good purity standards and it is sometimes compared to the bottled water available in stores. There are regular tests that are conducted by the government to analyze the quality of tap water on the basis of hardness, pH levels, dry solids at 180 degrees, fluoride, sodium, chlorides, and nitrite. These tests ensure that the quality of the tap water is maintained properly.

5. Austria

In Austria, tap water that is supplied is taken either from ground water or spring water. To protect these water resources Austria has formulated a strong Austrian Water Act. This act states 90% of the Austrians take their drinking water from the water supply facilities, which are run by the government. Supplying high quality drinking water is mandatory according to Austrian laws.

4. France

France uses various ways to increase the participation of the private sector in maintaining the sanitation and water supply of their tap water. There are lease contracts and special concessions, which are given to the private contractors. The levels of bacteria are very low in the tap water, which is supplied to its citizens and this is the reason why this country is part of this list.

3. Luxemburg

Luxemburg has nearly 71 springs that act as a great source of water resource for the country. However, there are only 38 of them that are used by their water department for obtaining drinking water.
