This foul water taste and smell is getting unbearable. You say it is safe, but isn’t that what they told the people in Flint, Michigan. I have friends who are serviced bu Southern Monroe Water & their water has no foul smell or taste.
My water has an unpleasant taste and odor. I want to confirm that it is safe and ask when the problem will be resolved. Thank you.
Water from the tap tastes like dirt and mold, even after Brita filtering. Hot water coming from the tap smells worse than cold water. Drinking this disgusting water is nauseating. Can more PAC be added to rid the water of MIB/geosmin? Water affects everything we do: drinking, cooking, making good coffee (seriously!). It’s more than an “aesthetic” issue and future reports should avoid minimizing what many experience as a true issue. Taste and odor of drinking water matter, too.
Our water has had a moldy/grassy taste to it for about 2 weeks. The water is almost oily. Its not good for drinking or using to clean and shower.
Tap water is undrinkable, even filtered, because of terrible smell and taste. Is this going to be fixed? I read city is aware of the issue but news doesn’t say whether it is going to change.
I live in an apartment complex on the east side of Bloomington. The water has had an algae or dirt taste to it for about 2 weeks now. It seems like the taste is getting stronger and stronger and the smell is horrible in the shower and when brushing my teeth with the tap water.
The water still smells and tastes bad, even after our recent heavy rainfall. Smells like dirt and tastes like dirt too.
The water taste has only gotten worse. :(
Water smells awful and tastes even worse. Using bottled water as the taste is not bearable.
Water tastes terrible and has tasted terrible for around 2 weeks. Filtered water luckily still tastes okay. But at all the taps other than where I have a filter, it is so bad that I am not sure it is safe to brush my teeth with it. This seems especially crazy when the water rates are way higher than they were some years ago--back when I moved to Bloomington the water tasted very good, and the cost was far lower. But then we have allowed a great deal of expansion and probably the utility companies just can't handle it all? At least SOME explanation is needed for the terrible taste of the water.
