Funny Coloured Water.....

[Karma Supra]

Has anyone else noticed their tap water has gone a funny colour????????

Ours is comming out looking with some kind od white fog in it? It is really quite grim!!!

I was wondering if it was a local water supply issue, of very localised pipe issues!!!!

Just wonder ing if it was only us

I need to do a water change on the fish tanks, and there is no way I am putting that stuff in!!!!!

Sometimes our tap water comes out a bit cloudy and then goes clear...... its completely harmless....

[Karma Supra]

To us or to fish??????

Why is it cloudy? what causes it?????

I don't fancy it lol

[Demonic Angel]

I really dont have the foggiest Charlie! I just know it doesnt kill you!

[Leeky]

Lime ;) the Reading area is full of it

we get 'cloudy' water sometimes here, its actually lots of tiny bubbles... Starts out looking almost like milk though!

Leave it to stand for half an hour or so and it all disappears, or just run the tap for a while.

We had that a while back.

Turned out it was a cracked pipe in the area, and it's lots of air in the water. ;)

be a man about it and confront your fear

Bahhhhhhhhhhhh

We are getting a well drilled in our garden as we are fed up of paying for an insuficient water service......

No hose pipe banns for us!!!

We get wildly varying pressure. When it's really high (enough that we had to buy a regulator to avoid bu**erring up the boiler) we get milky water and it is, just as FlatPack said, lots of tiny bubbles. Looks vile but it's fine. Or it could be the additives, like flouride... I don't see the point in that though... What's wrong with just leaving it as plain old water? I have flouride in my toothpaste ta very much.

Yeah, you may have good water .. but it's "oop Narth" and full of Northerners ;)

Took me long enough to learn one language, without having to learn yours as well.

haha nicely put ben lol

my water is fine goes through some wierd pump out back though that we've had fitted before it goes to the house so that makes it extra special

[Lou-Lou]

I think it's mostly chalk round Henley.. we get it really badly sometimes.. it's totally harmless!

[Karma Supra]

Yup it turns out that it is actually bubbles.....

As thames water totally failed to fix three leaks in the park we live in, we had to get them fixed ourself.....

Apparently the bubbles are commin when there are pipe leaks/maintenance......

A real PITA for doing coolant flushes :ffs:
