Upon moving into our new home in USVI, we noticed a panel on the floor of the guest room closet. We lifted it and saw a large creepy dark hole with some kind of liquid in it. We were told that that was a very large cistern that supplied the house with water. Gross! My very imaginative mind went to images of the iguanas, roaches and centipedes throwing daily pool parties at the edge of the cistern while doing back flips into our water. We were also told that the water refilled itself when it rained and piped down from the roof. Double Gross! My mind went to spiders and ants coasting down the pipes in inner tubes and on floaty noodles like at a water amusement park! So that was that, the hubby and I decided to never drink or cook with that water. The company to call on this island for filtered water is Chico's distributing. They distribute Le Bleu filtered water and I can't emphasize of how easy this service is to use. Services that work well and consistently on this island are hard to come by. Chico's always does next day delivery and they only charge $2 for a delivery fee. Its $.50 more for deliveries to St. John. Screw trying to haul bottles of water from Kmart home ourselves! Our driveway is a very long steeps 45 degree angle, someone else can navigate all that weight up there! In addition to delivering 5 gallon bottles ($8 each), they also distribute cases of 20 and 10 fl oz. bottles ($13.95 & $12.95 per case) to have when you're on the go. I also love it that they take credit cards. It's seems like a lot of services on this island do not. Deliveries always show up by the quoted delivery time so you're not waiting around wasting the day, and all of the customer service reps that I have spoken to on the phone and delivery drivers have been very pleasant. Chico's also distributes Florida's Natural Juices, Le Bleu Frute, and Mistic Juices, which we haven't tried yet as we don't want to get stuck with a plethora of juice as they only sell by the case. If you live on St. Thomas or if you're here for an extended vacation, look into Chico's. It's a very convenient way to go for your drinking water. read more
