  1. The impurities present in the surface water gets filtered as it percolates the several layers of the earth and it is available as ground water.
  2. The risk of contamination minimizes due to closed borewell.
  3. The temperature of deep water remains stable and so the ground water is available at a pleasant temperature.
  4. The chances of water remaining available in the bore during summers is more because it is available at a greater depth.
