    Rusty grease in water !
    I few days ago I noticed my toilet had what looked to be dirt in it I then realized that my entire shower and myself were covered in it when I tried to wipe it away it appeared to be a rust colored grease that doesn't come off! I have town water so I'm not on a well and other apartments in the building are not having the same problem!

    Any funny odor to the water or on your skin? Do you have a waterfliter on your fresh water incoming line?

    It doesn't really smell.. and I have no idea what if I have a water filter on my incoming line to be honest I don't know what that is.. my landlord won't do anything about it and I want to know if my water is safe

    Depending on where you live you may consider calling the health department to report a possible bacteria content in the domestic water.

    Assuming an apartment complex, call managemnt office. Same advice if a condominium complex.

    I have called the owners and they won't do anything about it.. so I guess the health board it is.. thanks
