Does this page cover all of Canterbury?

It covers every category Fontavio has enough mapped places for in Canterbury today. A category appears here once enough places in it have been added and confirmed, so a missing one means thin coverage rather than nothing on the ground.

What if a place has moved or is gone?

Report it from the app. A person reviews it, and water-safety reports are looked at first.

Is the tap water safe to drink in the United Kingdom?

Yes. In England, 99.97% of drinking water tests met the standards in 2024, according to the Drinking Water Inspectorate, and WHO and UNICEF put the UK's share with safely managed drinking water at 99.8% for 2024. Figures, sources and the dates they were checked: https://fontavio.com/united-kingdom/tap-water/

Is the water from a public tap or fountain the same as the tap water in the United Kingdom?

Not necessarily. A tap at a farm, a remote campsite or a village hall may be on a private supply, and in older buildings the pipes can affect the water from a tap. Let the tap run for a moment and look at the spout. When you find a good refill point, especially on a long walking route, add it to Fontavio or review it.
