Is it safe to drink water from a garden hose?

Substances used in vinyl garden hoses to keep them flexible can get into the water as it passes through the hose.  These substances are not good for you or your pets. There are hoses made with “food–grade” plastic that will not contaminate the water. Check your local hardware store for this type of hose.
