The campaign will see over 30 of these modern-day water fountains installed in towns and cities across Scotland over the next two years.Yes, Aberdeen's tap water is generally considered safe to drink as Aberdeen has no active health based violations of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) that we are aware of. Launched in June 2018 as part of the utility’s national Your Water Your Life campaign, the Aberdeen tap is the 8th to be installed so far. It digitally tracks the water usage and records both cost and plastic savings. The refill point – giving access to free, fresh and clean drinking water at the push of a button – is connected to the mains water supply and will be inspected regularly. Together, we hope that in the coming year we can further promote the important messages this tap represents and encourage customers across the North East not only to top up from the tap for the good of their health and pockets, but also to reduce reliance on single use plastics.” “We are delighted to launch both the North East’s first top up tap and Scottish Water’s newly formed partnership with AFCCT. Scottish Water, Corporate Affairs Manager for the North, Gavin Steel, added: Having the top up tap in the City Centre should make staying hydrated easier for many of us, we are delighted to show our support for this fantastic initiative.”
