Gonzo the Face Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 The real water that is... City water. Anyone in the Charoenrat Road/Rama IX Bridge area notice a discoloration in their tap water for the last couple days? You may not notice it in just the shower but if you put it in a tub or bucket it is noticeable. Probably Burma again. Let me hear from you.

cmsally Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 We don't generally use city water, but put some in a bucket a few days ago and definitely a funny colour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo the Face Posted July 26, 2019 Author Share Posted July 26, 2019 cmsally , what area are you located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhotoJohn Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Just checked mine and it's clear. But then our water is stored in a large tank on top of the condo, so it might take a while to be affected by new contamination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to flow from Chiang Moi direction, as when they dig up around the day market , the supply often gets cut off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But isn't that water treated and filtered in some way? If not it would be the same as dipping a bucket in the river. Come to think of it.... maybe the river water is cleaner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moe666 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Most treatment for public water is the use of a chemical to clear the water and then the addition of chlorine to kill any bacteria. If there is added sediment to the water in someway washoff from the river or into any holding area they may not have added enough chemicals to clear the water properly. There could also be a backflow caused by a water main break in your area of the city. Lots of reasons why the water could be cloudy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1FinickyOne Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 We had stains coming from the water in the iron.... will double check now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo the Face Posted July 29, 2019 Author Share Posted July 29, 2019 Can we get some input from members in different parts of the area? The cloudyness is still in the water and I would be interested to know if this is a local problem or area wide. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many filtration stations serve “the greater Chiang Mai city area”?Can’t be too big a problem as few confirmations here and no big deal in the local news.Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
