Default Is tooth brushing water from hot tap safer than from cold tap?

No, you safer using cold water for drinking and cooking.

Hot water contains more lead because the water sits around more and
lead enters hot water faster.

Besides, why would you risk burns with hot water when cold is right
there?



Er, you have missed a couple of things. The water from the hot water
tap is not so hot as to burn.

The cold water tap, as I said, is from a tank.
