Question from Susan
Hi Debra,
Have large non toxic drinking water containers for emergency water supply.
Have found a non toxic garden hose.
All that is needed is a non toxic kitchen faucet to garden hose adapter.
Please advise.
Thank you.
Debra’s Answer
I’m looking at various adapters online and there seem to be some made of metal and some made with plastic.
The thing is, leaching requires contact time. The water is going to be rushing past this half-inch of adapter in a nanosecond. It’s unlikely any material would leach into the water.
I would be much more concerned about the container first and the hose second. Good you have already handled those.
I’d love to hear what garden hose was determined to be non-toxic.
We have this kind and have been pleased with it:
