[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just in case you don't understand why nobody should drink warm tap water - a majority of homes' water heaters are contaminated with various types of dangerous bacteria. Even at a temperature hotter than most homeowners keep their heaters, it would not be high enough to kill the bacteria. When you take warm water from the faucet, it contains this bacteria from your water heater. It's fine if you're going to boil it and make pasta or something but it's not fine to drink it[/quote] This is looney tunes. Ignore.[/quote] https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2094925/ "However, Canadian studies have shown, even when the thermostat is set at 60°C, a high percentage -- approximately 40% -- of electric water heaters remain contaminated because of the lower temperature, about 30°C to 40°C at the bottom of the tank."[/quote]
