| Hey you water experts.... 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 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. |

| 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? |
