TIPS FOR YOUR TAP Using your outside faucet? Protect your drinking water with a simple device Hooking up a hose to your outdoor faucet might cause water problems indoors. John Ralston with our cross connection department says that if water pressure drops in our system or in your house, there is the potential for water in hoses, and the things hoses are hooked up to, to be pulled back into your drinking water supply. Here's how you can prevent that.
