I came accross these barrels . I wanted to know if they are safe to store ro/di water . Has anybody use this type of barrel ? Do they leach any bad stuff .

Are they used? If so then smell inside them. I they smell like food ( pickles, peppers, juice, syrup etc) then they most likely are food grade and safe.
I use similar barrels, however mine have a clamp on lid and are more aggressively tapered on the top and bottom. They also smelled heavily of greek peppers.
You could also contact the manufacture noted on the label.

Good luck
 
My friend told me they have never been used . If I call the company would I just ask if they leach out chemicals ?
 
I got some from a local cheese factory that stored balsamic vinegar. I also have one from a vitamin factory which had dish soap this one I don't use. They look identical thou so try to find out what they were used for.
 
Thank you guys so much . Well he told me they wernt used but I will double check tomorrow . What smells should I look for ?
