Lack of hot water
Lack of hot water
Weird smell and taste of water. (I know you are aware, just wanted to report it is in this area as well). Thanks for everything you do!
Taste of the water (direct from tap and also via Brita filter) is unappealing. Definitely not the same taste as our usual tap water. Clarity and smell is fine- this is purely a taste issue. But it is creating difficulties in maintaining hydration in our two children because they cannot handle the poor taste.
Water taste is still an issue - still undrinkable
Water running brown from al faucets in home. Have been calling the city for several hours and unable to reach anyone.
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.
I know this is not the first and won't be the last. Just wanted to formalize notice even though we are on East Monroe Water. You all are doing everything you can about the moldy water. Last year had the same problem at this time. The water causes my tongue to tingle. I know its suppose to be safe but we buy bottled water for those of us it bothers. The dog is struggling with it also. Thanks for always working on it. Strangely never noticed a problem when we were living in Park Ridge East our first 3 yrs here.
low water pressure
A lot of rust in water. Also the neighbor at 3945 hired a landscaping Company , they drove over the meter opening & broke the top. Don’t know if that’s contributing to water quality.
Tap water has a peculiar odor--like Windex. I've noticed it for about the past week. What did you guys do now?
