We are on an island & use lake water for everything but drinking and cooking. I have a water cooler & 3 5g containers that I rotate for the later 2. Thought about a treatment system but frankly, I enjoy getting off the island and going for water at the Alton water system spigot out of Alton Bay. Nice ride on a Summer morning!

Regarding "stagnant" water in a well. Remember, it most likely has been sitting underground for years!

Our neighbor put in a well several years ago because he uses his place periodically during the winter and didn't want to worry about his water line freezing or ice damage during low water winters. (He also owned the barge that brought the driller to the island).
