Questions and instructions

Literal question
H6. Do you have complete plumbing facilities in your living quarters, that is, hot and cold piped water, a flush toilet, and a bathtub or shower?

[] Yes, for this household only
[] Yes, but also used by another household
[] No, have some but not all plumbing facilities
[] No plumbing facilities in living quarters


[Consider that you have hot water even if you have it only part of the time. Mark yes, but also used by another household if someone else who lives in the same building, but is not a member of your household, also uses the facilities. Mark this circle also if the occupants of living quarters now vacant would also use the facilities in your living quarters.]
