Over the last two decades, more than 2 billion people have gained access to improved drinking water sources. The choices for water sources and treatment methods at the household level are influenced by people's perceptions of water quality. To ensure longterm sustainability, it is important to evaluate the environmental impacts of water provisions considering people's perceptions. In this study, the life cycle assessment (LCA) method and qualitative data collected from household interviews are used to determine the environmental impacts associated with water sources and household treatment methods. Results showed discrepancies between perceived and measured water qualities. In the case of tap water (i.e. low perceived water quality but high measured water quality), charcoal was used for boiling water at the household level that resulted in a high environmental impact due to a chronic over-treatment of water. In contrast, rainwater (i.e. high perceived water quality but low measured water quality) received
