Clean water:

• Clean water can come from a broken water supply, that is not contaminated.
• If the clean water is left untreated it can cause the water to turn into gray water and in worse cases it can turn into black water.

Gray water:

• Gray water is contaminated and could cause some discomfort or illness.
• It can be caused from a dishwasher overflow, toilet overflow with urine, and even your washer machine.

Black water:

• Black water is very contaminated and could cause serious illness. Any contact should be avoided.
• This can be caused from flooding of rivers or streams, water from beyond the toilet trap, water from the water bowl with feces, and standing water that has begun to grow microbial.
