But how safe it is to have water that's been sitting overnight or even longer?Do you sometimes drink old water from the glass left on the nightstand and feel that it tastes different? Well, this happens because of carbon dioxide. When you leave the glass of water uncovered for about 12 hours, carbon dioxide in the air starts to mix with it. This reduces the pH level of the water and gives it an off taste. But even then this water is safe to drink. Moreover, most experts believe that tap water has a shelf life of six months. After this period, the chlorine in the water dissipates to such a point that bacteria and algae start to grow in it. The growth of bacteria is even high when you store the water in a warm area.You should avoid drinking water left open for a very long time.

It is even worse when you share your water with someone suffering from communicable disease.Water in the car heats up due to sun rays, which serves as a perfect breeding ground for bacteria.
