Food Grade Hose Pipe
A food grade hose pipe is an essential item for your motorhome or campervan for several reasons:
- Safety and Health:
- Food-grade hoses are specifically designed for potable water use.
- They won’t leach harmful chemicals into your water supply, ensuring safe drinking water in your motorhome.
- Water Quality:
- Regular garden hoses may contain materials that affect water taste or quality.
- Food-grade hoses maintain water purity, preventing any unpleasant flavors or odors.
- Biofilm Prevention:
- Food-grade hoses discourage the buildup of biofilm on pipe walls.
- Biofilm can harbor bacteria and affect water hygiene.
- Compliance with Regulations:
- Some campsites or caravan sites require the use of food-grade hoses.
- Compliance ensures you can connect to their water supply without issues.
Remember, investing in a food-grade hose contributes to your overall well-being during motorhome adventures!
Even if you dont drink from your water tanks, it’s worth getting a food grade hose pipe. They are no more expensive than a normal hose pipe. So why not get the most suitable one if the price doesn’t vary.
Of course not all campervans have water tanks, so a hose may not be essential. It’s still worth looking at our essential items list though, as most also relate to campervans and not just motorhomes.
Our tested locations are also just as relevant to campervans as they are motorhomes.
