ʻO ka wai i hoʻolako ʻia i ke kūlanakauhale ua manaʻo ʻia he palekana ke inu, akā naʻe, ʻaʻole kēia ka hihia no ka mea he nui nā manawa ma nā paipu lōʻihi mai ka hale hoʻomaʻemaʻe wai a hiki i kou hale no ka haumia; a ʻaʻole maʻemaʻe, maʻemaʻe, a ʻono paha ka wai nui a pau. ʻO kēia ke kumu e pono ai nā kānana wai, hoʻonui lākou i ka maikaʻi o ka wai inu i kou home. Eia naʻe, ʻo ke kūʻai wale ʻana i ka kānana wai mua hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa ma ka pūnaewele a i ʻole ka hele ʻana me ka koho haʻahaʻa loa e alakaʻi iā ʻoe ʻaʻole e loaʻa ka kānana wai i kūpono loa i kou home a me nā pono. Ma mua o kou kūʻai ʻana i kānana, pono ʻoe e ʻike i nā pane i kēia mau nīnau:

ʻEhia ka nui o ka wai kānana āu e makemake ai e komo?
He aha nā lumi ma kou home e makemake ai i ka wai kānana?
He aha kāu makemake e kānana ʻia mai kou wai?

Ke ʻike ʻoe i nā pane i kēia mau nīnau, ua mākaukau ʻoe e hoʻomaka i kāu ʻimi no ka kānana wai kūpono. E hoʻomau i ka heluhelu no ke alakaʻi ʻana i ke koho ʻana i ka ʻōnaehana kānana wai maikaʻi loa no kou home.

Pono ʻoe i kahi ʻōnaehana hoʻoheheʻe wai paʻa?

Ke kānana nei paha ʻoe i ka wai ma kou home me ke kōkua o kahi hue kānana, no laila ʻaʻole pono ke kau ʻana i kahi ʻōnaehana kānana piha. Eia naʻe, pono ʻoe e noʻonoʻo i ka hiki o kāu hue a hoʻohālikelike i ka nui o ka wai āu e pono ai i kēlā me kēia lā. ʻAʻole lawa ka hue hoʻokahi lita no ka ʻohana ʻelua makua, koe wale no ka ʻohana piha. Hiki i kahi ʻōnaehana kānana wai ke hāʻawi iā ʻoe i ke komo maʻalahi i ka wai kānana hou aʻe, no laila ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke inu i ka wai kānana he nui me ka hopohopo ʻole no ka hoʻopiha ʻana i ka hue, akā hiki nō hoʻi iā ʻoe ke hoʻohana i ka wai kānana i kāu kuke ʻana. e hoʻomaikaʻi i ka ʻono.

Ma waho aʻe o nā pōmaikaʻi o ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka wai kānana, ʻo ka hoʻokomo ʻana i kahi ʻōnaehana kānana piha e mālama pū ai ʻoe i ke kālā i ka holo lōʻihi. ʻOiai he haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa loa ke kumukūʻai o nā hue, ʻaʻole lākou e lōʻihi e like me ka ʻōnaehana piha, no laila pono ʻoe e kūʻai i nā makahiki he nui. Pono ʻoe e noʻonoʻo i ke kumukūʻai o nā pahu pahu a me kā lākou uku hoʻololi no ka mea pono e hoʻololi pinepine ʻia nā pahu pahu no nā pahu pahu ma mua o nā pahu pahu. Me he mea lā he kumukūʻai liʻiliʻi kēia i kēia manawa, akā e hoʻonui ia i ka manawa.

ʻO kekahi kumu ʻē aʻe e pono ai ʻoe i kahi ʻōnaehana kānana wai ma kou home no laila hiki iā ʻoe ke kānana i ka wai āu e inu ʻole ai, e like me ka wai mai kāu ʻauʻau wai a me ka holoi lole. Ua ʻike mua ʻoe he ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka wai kānana no ka mea e hoʻopau ke kānana i nā kinikona i hoʻohui ʻia e ke kaʻina hana hoʻōla wai, akā hiki i kēlā mau kemika ke hōʻino i kou ʻili a me kou ʻaʻahu. Hoʻohana ʻia ʻo Chlorine i ka hana lapaʻau e pepehi i nā hua bacteria ʻino, wehe ʻia ka hapa nui ma mua o ka hōʻea ʻana o ka wai i kou home, akā hiki i nā meheu i koe ke hoʻomaloʻo i kou ʻili a hoʻomālamalama i nā lole ʻeleʻele ma mua.
