The devil we always were taught about was the leaded paint that was peeling and oxidizing on the ceilings. Lead white to this day is still a nightmare for anyone doing restoration work on older homes. Not even painter’s bane - calcimite (calcium white) is as problematic and THAT shit makes me want to scream and pull my hair out when I encounter it.
Well, no, but its not the hose that’s the problem - it was the lead pipes.
Also many cheap hoses have lead in them that leach into the water. Lead in hoses help keep them bendy in the cold.
