[–] ohulancutash@feddit.uk 3 points 1 month ago (3 children) Wait, there’s arsenic and the customer has to filter it out? What do the water company do then? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] seathru@quokk.au 3 points 1 month ago Mine expects me to filter literal shit out. More months than not we get boil orders for "high fecal coloform bacteria". And the notices come weeks after the testing; so that always makes you feel good. permalink fedilink source parent [–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago They probably have a well, this no water company. My water is crazy high in iron and manganese, our softener needs to be replaced and a new filter needs to be installed before we can drink from our well. Pain in the ass but at least all our grey water is cost of pumping electricity only. permalink fedilink source parent [–] aBundleOfFerrets@sh.itjust.works 1 point 1 month ago Did you miss the part where the mention it was a safe level? permalink fedilink source parent
