The purpose of this study is to
evaluate how the efficacy of water-treatment devices is affected by
user behaviors such as maintenance and selection on appropriate
technologies, and by variations in water chemistry. The study will

arsenic in their groudwater and are know to have in-home water
treatment units. An initial questionnaire and follow-up
questionnaire will be administered to each participating
household.
