For those dying to know what the heck a tinaco is and how the water system in Mexico works:
At my apartment complex, municipal water is regularly (or, not so regularly — as the case may be) delivered though a pipe under the street into a cistern (storage tank) located under our driveway); a bomba (pump) is run daily for an hour (más o menos) to bring water from the cistern up into tinacos sitting on the various rooftops of the complex. In case you are worried, float valves keep them from overflowing (most of the time). When we turn on the tap, courtesy of gravity, water flows (or dribbles) from the tinaco into and through our faucets. ¡Ojala!
By the way, drinking water is a completely different story…
