Is it dangerous to mix hot water with cold water for drinking?!


Question: Assuming that the water is not chlorinated and doesn't contain traces of lead.


Answers: Assuming that the water is not chlorinated and doesn't contain traces of lead.

Not at all. I suggest you run the hot water in the tap for about a minute before taking the actual water you will drink, as hot water can leach from the pipes. This much time will be enough to get rid of most of that, or you can just filter it.

There's no danger just by being hot and cold though.

No, you just get warm water.

as long as the water is not contaminated and you dont mix too much hot water it doesn't matter

Very dangerous. You could explode.

Ummm, no.

its not dangerous at all

It will make you sleepy very sleepy!

Of course it isn't. When you turn on your faucet, and adjust the temperture, you are mixing hot and cold water. Turning the temperture up adds more hot water and turning it down adds more cold water. It's perfectly safe to drink.

No. Because you do this if you have a cough. Caution: Make sure the water is boiled before adding hot water. You have to wait for the cold water cool down and then add hot water
