I've never heard a single thing about concerns over PVC until today. Before I even saw this article on HN I was in the process of researching it because a friend brought up how their dad told them not to drink the water from their faucet because it's running through PVC. I'm in the process of buying a house that has new PVC all over and I can't find any reliable info on this concern. Does anyone here have any sources to share?

I expect you could also find articles talking about metal leaching into water being bad too. Short of distilling your own water I don't know what you can really do.
