What is building drinking water testing? Management and records under the Building Sanitation Act [Basic Knowledge]

Is it not just the end after the inspection? The drinking water for specified buildings involves a continuous process that includes notification, appointment of a manager, and record-keeping.

The Building Sanitation Act (Law on Ensuring Sanitary Environments in Buildings) designates certain buildings used by many people as "specified buildings" and establishes standards for the maintenance and management of air quality, water supply and drainage, cleaning, and more. The inspection of drinking water in buildings is part of this management system. ■ Does bath water count as drinking water? The enforcement regulations define drinking water as water used for living purposes, such as drinking, cooking, and bathing (excluding bathing in inns). Water used for cooking and bathing, in addition to drinking water, is subject to the same management standards. ■ Are condominiums included? The government ordinance lists uses considered as specified buildings, including theaters, department stores, shops, offices, schools, and inns, but does not include residential buildings. If a condominium's water tank receives only tap water and has a usable capacity exceeding 10 cubic meters, it will be managed as a simple dedicated water supply under the Water Supply Act. ■ If it's not included, is no action required? The law requires that even buildings not classified as specified buildings, if used by many people, should be maintained and managed according to the same standards by those who have the authority to manage them, such as owners.
