I need to make a long water changing hose setup and Lowe's sells this (Watts 1' x 7/8" PVC Reinforced Braided Vinyl Tubing)

I am pretty sure it is garden hose so I want to make sure it will not be an issue for water changes.
 
Ive been using the same for the past year and a half with no issues. between honestly ALL the plastics i use with no issue this wasnt one. I made sure first though that i ran 5 gallons of hot vinegar water through before using in my tank. Thats my 2cents.
 
Should be just fine and for a rinse/clean up I'd just coil it up in a 5g bucket of hot water and maybe a lil vinegar.

Cheers, Todd
