Water is brown
Water coming out of taps BROWN.
Our tap water has turned yellow and there is some particulate in the kitchen faucet strainer. We just noticed this today, and it seems potentially dangerous. Our address is 907 S. Manor Rd. in BL 47401. Phone 812-219-8988
Water running brown from al faucets in home. Have been calling the city for several hours and unable to reach anyone.
Orange tap water.
Having visited the county government offices at the showers building recently I am shocked at the water quality. I had taken a drink from a water fountain and it was so bad. There is a bad chemical taste and it even smells weird. I hope this isn't what we expect the county workers to be drinking because I fear they could get sick from drinking it. I was just a visitor to the busing that took a drink from the water fountain. I couldn't imagine working in a building that has unsafe drinking water.
Lack of hot water
For several weeks, hot water from several faucets (kitchen, bathroom, etc.) comes out with a slight brown tint. Cold water is clear, but not hot water. What is the problem, and how can it be fixed?
We have noticed in the past week that there is an issue with the drinking water… we even changed our fridge filter because we thought it might be the issue. We don’t notice right from the tap, but when left for a long period of time or overnight, the water is undrinkable, tastes bitter and tastes and smells strongly like chlorine or a chlorine compound is in the water. We can’t find information anywhere about what has changed. We are considering getting bottled until then for consumption.
