Default We need a plumber to step in here and clear this up

I don't have a pool, but knowing that info, why would you want to swim in the water that's used in your toilet bowl (also not potable)? Just asking...

Is the water different in other parts of TV?
Are you sure he wasn’t talking about the irrigation water (the water that comes out of the in-ground sprinkler system)?

I’m no plumber, but I believe that all household water is the same. The water that goes into your toilet bowl comes from the same place as the water that comes out of your kitchen sink, bathroom sinks, shower heads, washing machine and fills your ice maker. And I’m also pretty sure that it is the same water that comes out of your outside hoses.
