JustAnotherVisitor User ID: 15869027 Netherlands 05/17/2012 03:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In cooler climates, the most common cause of green water is copper plumbing corrosion. If this is happening, the water will usually have a bluish-green tint and/or will leave a bluish-green stain on porcelain if the water drips from a faucet. Copper corrosion can also be caused by your electrical system being grounded to your water pipes, especially if you have a mixture of pipe material (e.g., some copper and some galvanized steel.). Green water may also be present in homes with copper plumbing that is less than two years old. The presence of copper can be confirmed through analysis. The EPA has a copper fact sheet. Green water can also be caused by dezincification of poor-quality bronze alloys found in valves, water pumps, and water pump parts. This problem can occur in high-rise buildings and large industrial properties where the water is pumped to storage tanks. The water may also be tested for zinc. During warm weather, green water may be caused by green algae in water supplies served by reservoirs or rivers. Algae are single-celled plants that readily grow in bodies of fresh water. Algae are not a health threat and reservoirs can be managed and monitored to prevent algae from growing to the point were they discolor the water. The water supplier through filtration may also remove algae. [link to www.mass.gov] or: Blue-Green Water On a seemingly random basis, customers at a small number of properties report blue-green water (water that has a cloudy to blue-green appearance, possibly containing blue-green particles, and having an unpleasant bitter taste). This is caused by accelerated corrosion of customers’ internal copper water pipes and appears to be restricted to cold water pipes. Blue-green water must not be consumed (by drinking or in the preparation of food) as it can cause vomiting. Prolonged consumption of water containing elevated copper levels can have adverse health effects. As blue-green water originates from a property’s internal copper pipes, customers can manage the problem by flushing their tap with fresh mains water. This means running their tap until the water becomes "crystal clear". In certain cases, corrosion of copper pipes can lead to perforation and leakage.

A Friend User ID: 16368040 United States 05/20/2012 10:16 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to newyork.cbslocal.com] Quoting: Awakened In Christ TOMS RIVER, N.J. (CBSNewYork) — Residents in a New Jersey neighborhood have turned on their faucets of late and been shocked to see a green water mystery waiting for them. CBS 2′s Elise Finch spoke with residents of Toms River who are not happy with water flowing from their taps. “The water is green coming out of the tap,” Ed Lefebvre said. The green color doesn’t stand out in small amounts, but when residents use it in large volumes to fill up pools and bathtubs, it becomes very noticeable. I used to live on Lakehurst Naval Air Station which is very close to Toms River. My sister was born in the hospital there. Your post brought back fond memories. Sorry about the green water though. But Lord, he stinketh! :fnecsm: "When the sky crackles in an electric dance of a beautiful requiem of lapis lazuli, maybe you will remember..." ~ Anonymous Coward 77360040 |
