Background: Makrayu Community Health Center data in 2022 shows that the number of heads of households using Clean Water Sources (SAB) from metered taps is 1,468,173 residents (93.6%), and protected wells are 5 residents (2.4%). The Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia 1990 concerning water quality, states that water is very important to maintain survival, but in many cases the water used does not always comply with health requirements, it is often found that the water contains germs or certain substances that can endanger human survival. This study aims to find out the analysis of the level of clean water consumption in households in the working area of ​​the Makrayu Health Center Palembang in 2023. Methods: The research design was cross sectional. The population in the study were all households in the Working Area of ​​the Makrayu Health Center, totaling 11,615 households. The sample in this study was 99 households. The sampling technique used proportional random sampling and continued with purposive sampling. Data collection was carried out on 08-21 June 2023. The research instruments were questionnaires and observation sheets. Bivariate analysis used the Chi-square test, while multivariate analysis used multiple logistic regression tests. Results: The results of the bivariate analysis showed that there was a relationship between income (p value 0.032), number of family members (p value 0.016), sources of clean water (p value 0.000), physical quality of water (p value 0.000), and risk assessment (p value 0.002) to the level of clean water consumption, while there is no relationship between access to water sources (p value 1,000) to the level of clean water consumption. The results of multivariate analysis showed that the dominant factor for the level of clean water consumption was the number of family members (p value 0.018; OR= 0.239).Conclusion: Based on the results of the research, the researchers hope that more people will be able to check clean water sources, so as to minimize the risk of diseases caused by water, and the scope of clean water use can reach the target.
