Although it is probably safe enough drinking from a regular hose, a drinking water safe one is probably better for hooking up an RV.

The material used for "safe" hoses is designed not to do that.. We use a 25' white hose, that is used for fresh water hookup ONLY. For all other purposes, I have another 25' of plain garden hose, and 50' of flat, roll up hose. The 50' is marked safe, and has been used for that on a few occasions,, although I do not leave it in the heat with pressure on it.
