There are many sources of fresh water: rain, rivers, lakes, wells, snow, glaciers. Sea water is not fresh, it is salt water, but even that can be made into fresh water by means of a desalination plant.

Answer

Any source of water that has sewer smell, or that has a chemical rainbow sheen, or a milky color should be avoided. They may contain toxic chemicals that cannot be removed by any purification method used. Chemicals cannot be boiled or distilled out of an affected water source.
