Pot water is best for health. Especially in this hot summer, pot water is very helpful. In pot these are lot of little holes which helps water to get more oxygen content. So pot water is very useful for health. Since many chemicals are used in fridge, it's not as much good for health

I also think that pot water is good for health. I am also planning to buy pot to put water and curd water in the pots and to drink them from pots.

Pot water is naturally cooled and kept in a container with no artificial components. So generally it is more helpful than fridge water. But if we want more cooled state of water we have to rely fridge water kept in closed container.

I usually prepare tap water, but in some cases i used mineral water especially when i'm on the other places because i don't know the source of the drinking water, i don't have in mind about the health purposes of water, until you have a posted it, ever since for me i drink water when i feel thirsty, but now i realize that i must take consider about water when it comes to health. For me as long as the drinking water is safe it is okay.

I don't know how 'fridg' water is different tasting. I like to use a Britta filter. They have pitchers and I put the water in it and it filters through. Much nicer taste.

I think this all depends on the weather If the weather is hot, I believe the water from the fridge may help alleviate too much body heat. and i the the weather is cold, I think it is vice versa. However, I read from one article that lukewarm water is always best because it helps in digestion of food Also, if you are taking in some medicines, it should not be taken with cold water

I used to drink pot water in my childhood days, later all the pots have been replaced by fridges. A Refrigerator is just not for water, but, it's used to store your groceries. When it comes to summer people prefer fridge water rather than pot because, they feel it's a social status and look pot cheaply. Most of them are now used to drink in bottles and if it's a pot you have to dip in the glass and take out water. Pot water is really tasty and good for health.

By 'pot' water, I'm guessing that it's water that was boiled? I prefer my water cold-either over ice, or refrigerated many hours. I don't have to boil water here, but I'll leave it (if I remember to) sit out in an open glass, bottle or pitcher to let the chlorine evaporate before I place it in the refrigerator to get cold. When I go camping, if we don't have enough water, we'll boil it, but that's only in extreme cases. If I recall, it had a flat taste-it quenched our immediate need, but wasn't really refreshing.

Hi, I don't understand what you mean by "pot water." If you could be more descriptive, I could provide more definitive answers. If I understand it right it could be boiled water, a process to eliminate bad microorganisms to make it potable, the process could also alter the natural taste, one reason most people, children in particular, don't take to it readily. Again, I can't have a more specific answer to your question.

according to me water is water. I wonder what you mean by: proceeding water. I assume your children only like the fridge water because it's cold and if you drink something cold you partly lose your taste.

Hi! It's pot water as It's a natural way of cooling; Pot cleans some impurities in water (pores). More-over refrigeration is an artificial process but pot water isn't.

I think, it is a good idea if you drink pot water than fridge water in the hot weather. Because pot water tends more suitable with your high body temperature than fridge water. Fridge water too cool for your body temperature, it is not good for your body because the degree of temperature between the water and your body was contras.

Pot water is healthy because it is natural and is also cool but the purity of water may be dismissed in refrigerator i really have noticed the freezer water firstly turn into ice and then again into water the many impurities dive into it so.pot water is helpful for health fill the pot with reversed osmosis water.

Hello gamyam, At the moment its water from the tap that I let stand for 24 hours or more till it gets rid of that taste horrible metal taste. There is a pot water tap outside but others have told me not to drink from there and I suppose they could be right too as its not treated water. However there are factories here that use the same water that comes out of that tap so I am inclined not to drink it maybe use it for the garden like cleaning and other things. xxx

In hot weather, we get so thirsty and tempted to drink ice cold water. But sometimes that is not the best idea. Pouring ice cold water straight away down our dry throat could serve like scratching it and for those with weak throats can end up with some sore ones.

It depends on our body as well. As for me, I could not consume water from the fridge as I will end up coughing in the night. Usually I would need to drink warm clean water
