Frequently Asked Questions
Is stainless steel safe for kids to drink from every day?
Yes. Food-grade 18/8 stainless steel (Grade 304) is non-reactive, BPA-free, and does not leach into water. Ensure the interior has no coating or liner — bare stainless steel is correct.
What size water bottle is right for a school-going child?
750ml is appropriate for most children aged 6–16 — enough for a full school day, light enough for a bag.
How do I clean a kids' insulated water bottle?
Hand wash daily with warm water and a bottle brush. Weekly white vinegar soak to remove mineral buildup. Do not put in the dishwasher.
Does HYV ship across India?
Yes — pan-India shipping with tracking. Most metro orders arrive within 2–4 working days.
