The Newlands and Bradwell Springs reopened to the public this week.
The City of Cape Town says both water collection sites will be open seven days a week, from 5am to 9pm
Safety measures have been put in place to help prevent the spread of Covid-19.
The City said water collections are limited to a maximum of 25 litres at a time to prevent long lines.
No entry will be permitted without a mask and a physical distance of 1.5 metres from others must be kept at all times.
People will have to sanitise their hands upon entering the site and use the back of their hands to open and close taps, while ensuring that their container does not touch the tap.
Additional security guards will be provided to manage Covid-19 regulations.
Residents are reminded that the spring water is not treated, and it is used at the residents’ own risk.
The City's Xanthea Limberg says: “Recognising that these sites are very important to many residents, and their significance in the city’s culture, a special effort was made to open the spring water collection points as soon as we could.
“We kindly ask that residents comply with health and safety measures to allow everyone to use these sites safely and efficiently."
The Newlands Springs site is on the northern side of the Newlands Swimming Pool, near the Dean Street Shopping Centre.
Bradwell Springs site is located on the corner of Upper Buitenkant and Ludlow Street site.
