Is one due the right to potable water at a tap at their home? Or is purified water a service offered by the government as one source of many available to the us population?

Are you not allowed to pay for bottled water instead of paying your local utility for drinking water?

The bodily autonomy argument seems bad to me because you are buying water from the government when you could buy water from any other source instead.

Is the argument that the government water is too convenient and so it should be unfiltered? Who is to say that filtering out poop is not infringing on my right to consume unfiltered water?
