Step by Step of: How to purify water at home

Fill a pot with water from the tap. Put it on high fire.

Once it starts to boil, leave it for 10 minutes. When the water reaches its boiling point (100º C) all bacteria die or become inactive.

Let it cool and the water will be ready to drink.

If you want to try disinfection with chlorine, the amount of chlorine that you will have to add will depend on the concentration of this substance, generally, three drops per liter are sufficient. After adding the chlorine, it is important to wait half an hour before drinking the water.
Chlorine is one of the most effective disinfectants because it is effective to eliminate bacteria.
