Can you use this for potable water?

Dunno if hazardous to health, but I would. Contact of water to pump extremely limited and brief. This pump is very small.

I think it says not for use with potable water. Look into a shark bite fittings - no soldering.

To be honest I'm not sure, but I don't see why not. You can always use the "old fashion" method of boiling water as well.

No. This isn't designed for that sort of use. No less, I don't think any state board of health would allow you to use this for potable water. It's not a drinking fountain.

I would think you could... It will take a lot for a pot this size to boil water.

I know you asked this question a long time ago, but here's my two cents:My understanding is that Brita filters are meant for water that is already potable. I would HIGHLY recommend the LifeStraw for what you're talking about! Here's the link: LifeStraw Go Water Bottle with Integrated 1000-Liter LifeStraw Filter

You sure can. I own 3 of these and fill all of them with tap water. No problems :)

Yes, you can...but I boil any water that I put into my neti pot to use no matter where I get it from :)

I think you could but remember it is plastic so I don't think you'd want to put boiling water in it.

yes you can! Just make sure no water condensation drips on the filter, that would be bad for the filter.We got em in stock at SunflowerSupplies.com631-651-8281

Well it does say POTABLE water, or made for potable water, also says PBS,BPS? free. I used mine for 4 days over a long weekend and had no problem with it, in 75 80 degree weather camping. It is made for water storage,I had no problem with the water smelling funny or anything.I'm happy with mine.

I would not recommend to use it for drinking water. I love to use it for my pool and it works nicely. For your drinking water you want to have a test kit for additional elements as e-coli, lead, nitrates, pesticides, hydrogen sulfide. Hope that helps.

Yes you can. It will just filter the water more thoroughly essentially making better tasting water.

Yes you can. Look at the water flow chart to see if this will supply what you need.

the actual product website says it is NOT drinking water safe, this was the answer by the site moderator in the discussion forum: "no our hose is not drinking water safe (potable) Thanks."

Technically it can. Ideally you should use distilled water. However,I think the change would be minimal.

I haven't tried that, but as long as it is mixed well I think you could. I have only put water in mine and I love it.
