Whether PVC hose can be used for drinking water delivery depends on its specific type and material.
Application of PVC hose in drinking water delivery
Ordinary PVC hose: Ordinary PVC hose may add lead salt stabilizers during the production process. These substances are toxic to the human body and may precipitate into drinking water, thereby endangering human health. Therefore, ordinary PVC hose is not suitable for drinking water delivery.
Specific PVC water pipe: For specific types of PVC water pipes, such as UPVC pipes, although their main component is polyvinyl chloride, the production process is very mature, the content of vinyl chloride monomer in the raw materials is extremely low, and no lead-containing, toxic additives are added during the production of the pipes. The structure of these pipes is stable and will not migrate or penetrate into drinking water. Their hygienic performance has been verified by relevant departments. Therefore, specific types of PVC water pipes can be used for drinking water delivery.
