🚱 Non-potable Water
U+1F6B1🚱 Meaning & Usage
The 🚱 symbol is an internationally recognized warning sign that means 'non-potable water'—in other words, water that isn’t safe to drink. You’ll commonly find it near faucets, outdoor spigots, industrial pipes, or public water sources in parks, campgrounds, and laboratories. Its design is straightforward: a blue water droplet crossed out with a bold red diagonal line, instantly signaling 'do not consume.' It often appears alongside or in contrast to potable water indicators (like a plain water drop or drinking glass icon) to help people quickly tell safe from unsafe sources. Because it’s standardized across many countries, travelers and locals alike can understand the risk without needing words.
Usage Examples
"The water source in the wild looks clear, but don't drink it directly - it has the 🚱 symbol."
"The tap water here tastes strange, almost undrinkable like 🚱."
"Remember to bring enough clean water when camping - the scenic area only provides 🚱 non-potable water."
