Like the commenter above said .... having that water sit stale in about 50 feet of hose for about a week or two or longer and depending on where it was placed, being heated by the sun and cooled every night.
As a rule of thumb, if you ever want to try this, run the hose for about five minutes first.
5 minutes!? Jesus Christ, it clears out in about 10 seconds.
Some people are just really overcautious. I'm not sure why but Reddit was basiclaly known for that.
It depends on the hose and the flow rate. They can vary a lot.
Also, your not just clearing the stagnant water, but also anything that was growing in it.
Run it until it's cold. You don't need 5 minutes.
Five minutes? It should take about 30 seconds to run numerous gallons through. I think project farm was testing hose nozzles and he was getting 5 gallons in less than a minute.
God I want to like him so bad! Like he tests all the stuff that's right up my alley. But I can not stand his voice and jumpy editing.
Just looked him up. He reminds me too much about the tv-shop salespeople. Kinda yelling at me, speaking really fast and stopping just a bit too long after the end of a sentance.
Idk, might be super cool though.
I’ve mostly stopped watching, right around the time I stopped buying so much shit I don’t need, but I did see him testing the hose sprayers like that which is why I mentioned him.
Ah, I saw this and was thrown off because I grew up on a farm where the hose was used for everything. In thinking about it, my better judgement wouldn’t consider drinking from the hose I keep at the apartment for a second, even if I’d been using it all day 🤢. That sits for months at a time gathering who-knows-what.
