Experts suggest not to drink the water burning
Water heaters, storage water may be contaminated, the contaminated water before boiling.
\"Drink with a kettle of boiling water burn, burn with a 100-degree solar water heater can not drink?\" Yesterday, a curious reader very fact that a telephone consultation call to the newspaper you may also have been in doubt, very difficult question to answer.
With this question, we ask the experts. The answer is: water heaters, storage water may be contaminated, the contaminated water before boiling. For health, or other provinces this gas as well.
Shows the water temperature 100 ?, this \"water\" drink it
The very fact that the home improvement of a solar water heater, usually are used for bathing. Most people install the water heater is designed to facilitate bathing. For water, usually with drinking fountains, electric teapot, or directly to buy mineral water. Few people will get to drink the water heater, few people reflect on this issue.
But a few days before hot weather, solar water temperature are to 100 ?. The very fact that suddenly had an interesting idea. \"If you drink the water heater, so that both energy-saving and convenient, can we not use it yet.\"
\"100 degrees is the boiling water, and I think I should drink, but friends say does not work, do not drink the water heater, I would like to ask the experts, my friends, which argument is right?\"
The reader\\ s idea of ??a good, convenient and low-carbon. But feasible? We help you ask the experts.
Already above 70 ? sterilization, but could easily lead to circulation tank pollution
Zhejiang University School of Biological and Environmental Engineering, Professor Pan Lili said, after we heated water for drinking purpose is to eliminate the bacteria in tap water, so water is more sanitary, usually until boiling, boil will be assured of is to drink.
But in fact, as long as fresh water heated to above 70 ?, which can be completely killed the bacteria, and you can drink up. As with electric kettle or electric water heaters, gas water heater, to heat, and water it does not matter whether the drink, in theory, with the water heater can heat fresh water to drink.
But in everyday life, why not drink the water with a water heater heat? Professor Pan said, mainly because both the solar water heater, or electric water heater, there is a tank, ever use water stored in it, the time may well be a long breeding of bacteria, so contamination of the water before boiling. Under such circumstances, do not drink the water. And even if the water temperature to ensure that there are 100 ?, can not rule out the outlet pipe of plastic material is heated to release toxins.
Less gas water heater, but it was too uneconomical to boil water
Ask the Professor Pan Lili, the reporter went to the Sakura Co., Ltd. Hangzhou service points. \"We do not suggest that you drink.\" Yao Xiaoming staff reporter saw with electric water heaters, gas water heater\\ s internal structure. Electric water heater can burn up to 75 degrees Celsius, cold water into the heating pipe heating, hot water to go up, impurities sink to the bottom, there is also magnesium rod for cleaning the container. Once you let go of some of the top of the water, the cold water will automatically enter the temperature will drop. The more hot water to put cold water into the more.
Also, do not use electric water heater in case of memory where there is still water in this water is not new, is not suitable for drinking.
Gas water heaters have storage tanks, tank capacity, but it\\ s not. Into water, after heating can be used immediately, there is no problem of water is not circulating. It burns the maximum temperature can reach 70 ?. Should drink of it. However, we ignore a real problem. We usually take a bath when the water is generally set at about 40 ?, make water burn 70 ?, is bound to spend a lot of gas. This is not worth the economic cost, from the water heater\\ s life on the run, not value.
Huang Ming Solar water heaters also gives the staff \"is not recommended to drink\" answer. Their answer is that water heater in the tube may be breeding ground for bacteria, causing pollution. This water bath no problem drinking are not appropriate.
