Ka taea e au te inu tika i te wai puna? Me tāuta he taputapu horoi wai?
He mea tika! Tino tika!
Ko te tukanga tuku iho o te purenga wai i roto i te whare wai e whā ngā taahiraa matua, arā, te whakapūmau, te whakatō, te tātari, me te patu huakita. I mua, mā ngā taahiraa tuku iho e whā ka taea e te whare wai te whakatutuki i ngā hiahia o te wai inu a ngā tāngata whenua, engari i nāianei kei te piki haere te kino o te raruraru o te parahanga wai, ā, kei roto te wai o te whenua i te huringa taiao me te huringa pāpori o ngā whenua e rua, me te whakaranu o te parahanga ahumahi, te parahanga ahuwhenua me te parahanga karihi, he tino kaha te nekeneke me te utu i roto i te wai, ā, ko te tikanga, ka noho ēnei parahanga hei wāhanga o rātou ake. Nō reira, kāore i taea e ngā taahiraa tuku iho e whā te whakarite i te haumaru o te wai puna, he maha ngā whare maimoatanga wai ka noho ki roto i te tukanga maimoatanga tuku iho i muri i te hohonutanga o te tukanga, pērā i te mimiti waro whakahohe me te tukanga whakakotahi, te hohonutanga o te tukanga waikura me te tukanga wehenga kiriuhi, engari kei te whanake tonu me te rongonuihia ēnei tukanga.

Heoi anō, i roto i te tukanga tuku wai, ka haere te wai puna mā roto i tētahi whatunga o ngā paipa wai-kore hei tuku wai ki ia whare. I roto i ngā tau, ka hangaia he paparanga matotoru o te unahi i roto i te whatunga paipa wai-kore i roto i te tuku wai, he uaua ake te paparanga unahi, me te unahi mārō pērā i te unahi, engari kei roto hoki te waikura, ngā poke, ngā huakita me ētahi atu poke. Kāore te mata o te paparanga unahi i te papatahi, ā, he ngāwari ki te kawe i ētahi poke i roto i te paparanga unahi ki roto i ia whare i te wā e rere ana te wai puna.

Mēnā he pumau te tuku wai, he pumau te pēhanga wai, ka taea hoki te pupuri i te paparanga unahi kia pumau ake. Kia whakahokia mai te wai, ka pēhia anō, ka pakaru te paparanga unahi mēnā ka whakakapia te wai, ka nui te wai ka rewa ki te kāinga o te kaiwhakamahi. Ko te mea tino māmā ko te kite i te wai kua huri te tae.

Heoi anō, ko te pēhanga wai o te tipu wai ka taea anake te tuku ki te papa 5-6. Kei te raru te papa teitei o te whare noho i te tuku wai tuarua, kāore te tāke wai tuarua e ngaro katoa, kei waenganui o te whakawhiti wai me te mamaoa he awaawa, ka ngāwari te uru o ngā poke ki roto i te tāke wai. Ko te whakaaro, kāore te puna wai tuarua e whai taputapu tātari katoa, ā, ko ētahi kei te tuanui, kei raro rānei i te whenua hei tuku wai me te rokiroki, nō reira he tino ngāwari te whakaputa huakita.

Hei whakarāpopototanga, ko te raruraru parahanga wai, ko te tukanga maimoatanga o te whare wai, ko te kaha o te whatunga paipa hydrophobic me te rauemi o ngā wāhanga e pā ana ki te wai, ka pāngia te haumaru o te pūnaha tuku wai tap e ngā tāke rokiroki hapori, ka taea e te wai tap te whakaiti noa i te toenga chlorine, kāore e taea te tango, ka taea e te chlorine wera te whakaputa i ngā matū kino hou, engari kāore e taea te whakatau i ngā poke rauropi, te paru me ētahi atu poke. Ka taea e te horoi wai te aukati i te paru, te waikura i waho, engari ka taea hoki te tango pai i ngā konganuku taumaha, te toenga chlorine, ngā tae ke me ētahi atu take, ko ngā huakita me ētahi atu mea kino kāore e tātarihia, hei tautoko i te wai inu hauora mō te whānau katoa.
