I have a stove top that i use nat. gas to heat my strike water in my basement. I have to lift heavy buckets of hot tap water and carry over to the pot on my stove. So in my effort to always make my brewing days less work, i am considering running a water line over to the stove and fill up from there. Here's my questions:
I like using PEX and gaterbites due to easy installation and cost, but does PEX have/leach BPA from the piping?
Also, does anyone use hot tap water from the hot water tank to speed up heating their water? I never thought that there may be danger in using hot water but just read on a plumbing forum that hot water is ONLY to be used for cleaning and cold water is to be used for cooking. Can anyone shed some light here for me? Thanks in advance.
