    The water company came out to my house a while back because of this issue. They just told me to run the water from each faucet a few times a week for about 10 minutes to clear it out. Pretty nasty.

    Just rusty piping from main to your house. It's okay but get tested (they have free water test kits at homedepot)

    Isn't this pretty normal? We get letters about once every two years that they are flushing the system and to run the faucet to flush it out of the house, not wash clothes, etc.

    The problem is that you could just go a couple days without using one of the faucets and it will look like this. Sometimes daily but it eventually clears up. The water stained one of our toilets pretty bad. Hard as hell to get off. It fills up with yellowish water and just sits there since it is not used as much.

    Houston tap water is fine. Taste fine. That is from the pipe from the main. I was ing south central Texas where there is alot of drilling last week. The water tasted AWFUL.
