If you let the water run for a few minutes does it clear up? If so then I wouldn't worry - its probably just on the pipes that got cleared out. If it continues, you should call a plumber.

What does the county "flushing the system" mean?

Our tap water is gross and disgusting. We onlyl drink bottled water - like Beth had said, we have a water cooler and it's not that expensive per month.

Why is your tap water gross and disgusting? Where do you live?

We rent in Baldwin and our house is ANCIENT!! Our showerhead always has a brownish funk around it (no matter how much we scrub and clean it) and out toilet bowl has permanent srust stains where the watter sits.

My own bathroom grosses me out. We use bottled water for EVERYTHING - including brushing our teeth, boiling water, etc....
