Where I live, we seem to be located close to a dead end of a water main. This causes us no end of problems, as the water always seems to be stagnant and filled with sediment unless I get the local authority to flush out the hydrant every couple of weeks, to which they object bitterly. This weekend, things have come to a head, as the water has become slimy! It is horrible to shower in, and undrinkable. Could it be related to the season we are in, and algae growth? The clothes smell horrible after being washed too, particularly the towels. We live in a very built up residential suburb, but most houses canvassed on this dont have any water problems, seems to be just us somehow.... what can I do??
