How to remove air from a water line in kitchen faucet only?
Sounds more like you have some flow restriction (dirt or mineral build up) and not air. But to remove air from a line.. you always start at the top.. as in if its the cold water side start at the highest fixture on that line and just open and bleed it out, as the air will generally rise to the higest point in a line first.. (upper floors if you have more than one floor) then go back down the line to the next higest ad on and on to the lowest. But I dont think this is gonna fix yor problem in this instance.. You likely have a blockage in the line somewhere.. most likely at an areator, regulator, or a valve or shut off somewhere.. you are gonna have to take em one by one basically..
What would be the cause of brown water appearing in your toilet bowl after you flush?
Check the toilet tank ,is the water discolored? If so look for a foriegn object or substance in the tank. Another thing to check is the waterline is there galvanized waterlines going to the supply of the toilet? Galvanized pipe can rust on the inside after long periods of time.The toilet bowl may not be flushing out completely leaving feces in the upper part of the trap that dissolve in timeHope this helps
Dirty water and shower head dripping?
When filling up the bathtub with water, the water has a "dirty" look to it. It is very noticeable when filling the tub for a bath. It has been doing this for a couple of months. But the water in the rest of the house appears fine. Also, in the same bathroom, after taking a shower and turning off the faucet, water will come out of the shower head in a slow stream for about two seconds. It doesn't happen right away, usually about two minutes after the faucets are turned off. I didn't have these problems until the city did some work on the water main. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Wonder if it could be the hot water heater, since it is over ten years old.
Dirty water coming out of the tap?
The water is probably OK. What happens is, the water sits (does not move) in the pipe for some period of time and iron from your pipe (usually galvanized pipe) oxidizes. when you turn on the tap the colored water comes out but the water flowing thru the pipe after does not have time to oxidize. This usually doesn't occur with copper or plastic pipe/
Which is better to drink: boiled tap water or filtered tap water?
Boiling tap water is not enough to remove the contaminants which can be found in public water supplies. Boiling a kettle for example, may only remove around 30% of the chlorine present in tap water. To remove it fully requires a gentle boil for 15–20 minutes, which is very inefficient in terms of time and energy use.Filtered tap water on the other hand can remove contaminants and odours in a much more economical way, giving you fresh, clean drinking water in just a few minutes. A filter can help remove chlorine, heavy metals and other contaminants such as microplastics to a much more effective degree than simply boiling.Some people distill water by condensing the vapour created during boiling. Distilled water is not recommended however, as it strips the mineral content out of the water making it unsustainable for consistent human consumption.
