About a month or so ago there was a sign on our main road into our development that said "LOW WATER PRESSURE NEXT FEW DAYS". Ok, I never notice so all was good.

Now my tap water is injected with air. It comes out looking like dense fog is the best way I can describe it. If you let the glass sit for a minute, the tiny bubbles dissipate and the water is clear as day. It also tastes fine. What gives?

Cyanide injection pump might be set too high.

I better get Madogmarine on the case immediately.

I saw a similar sign a while back in my community. The next couple of days we had air in the water lines but after that it just cleared up.

I think it will clear up soon.:lol:


"LOW WATER PRESSURE NEXT FEW DAYS"

I think it will clear up soon.:lol:That was over a month ago fool. The sign has been gone. Reread my 1st post.

That was over a month ago fool. The sign has been gone. Reread my 1st post.
Maybe they're just running behind.:lol:

If it's been that long I would put a call in to METCOM. I remember it doing it for 3-4 days and it's me and the wife.

Sounds like the water pipes are not completely filled with water. As air is much more compressible than water having pipes being partially occupied by air allows for much easier changes in volume of water without too much pressure change in the pipes.

Do your neighbors have a similar problem?

Do your neighbors have a similar problem?Dunno. I rarely see my neighbors. :lmao:

I pay a flat fee so I'm going to let the water run all night and see what happens.

Dunno. I rarely see my neighbors. :lmao:

You going to run all that water? Do you have a septic tank or sewer? If you have a septic tank you might want to hook up a hose and run it from the outside faucet well away from the house versus overflowing the tank making the drain fields become saturated.

Sounds like they added a booster pump to the system. Pressurized water holds more air, so that is why you are seeing it.

Still cloudy this morning.
