It is best to sip water through the day and never drink more than 2 pints in one hour. Do not excede 6 pints in any day. If you are a runner or professional athlete then you may need to trust your judgement and drink more than that but never excede 6 pints, but on average, 4 pints (or 2 litres) of water per day is recommended for the average person.
