1. "Safety" is relative, but there's lots of stuff in American tap water that you wouldn't ideally be consuming, albeit at fairly low levels.
  2. We use purified water for cooking and drinking.
  3. No. Our municipal water is preposterously expensive and it's of poor enough quality that we still spend money on purification.
  4. No, and you should probably stop doing that, too.
  5. Still, although I understand that sparkling is actually better for you.

I'm not totally sure. Right now we're getting purified water delivered to our house, but we're looking into the different options for water filtration.
