I had already let the water flow, so it wasn't producing the black debris anymore, but you can see the residue on the side of this plastic container. We have had this problem periodically since we moved here two years ago.
This apartment complex has some of the nastiest water I have ever tasted. I have travelled to third world countries and this is significantly worse. I would rather die of dehydration than drink a glass of water from this apartment complex. We have taken the liberty to test the water and found extremely high levels of lead and other bad minerals. This forces us to drink only bottled water. When the issue was brought up to management, they laughed in our face and refused to address the problem
Water coming through faucets and toilet fills is very dark copper colored.
My water in my bathtub comes out with a rustic color. Not just when I first turn it on but it doesn't stop it's very dark I took samples and have taken pictures. My sink is not that way or the toilet water. I'm assuming it's a water main break but there has been nothing reported about it and it's not just been today. I'm just concerned of what would be in the water.
The tap water smells sulpheric(rotten eggs) since yesterday morning. 3/10 strength.
The water still smells and tastes bad, even after our recent heavy rainfall. Smells like dirt and tastes like dirt too.
Water smells and tastes like dirt. Going on week 2 of this issue.
Our tap water has a strong smell and taste of mildew. I don't know about water safety, but at this point we can't even use it for cooking, brushing our teeth, or making coffee, let alone drink it.
Water smells like dirt. Literally like soil. It’s been this way for at least a week, and nothing has made it better. I’ve tried bleach in the drains, thinking it was the pipes.
The smell of our tap water is atrocious. Even with a new filter in our fridge/freezer it doesn't help much. The Brita filter on the countertop pitcher definitely helps though (for whatever it filters out).
