David…I’m not trying to ‘one-up’ you but I thought I’d share a similar situation from day before yesterday’s inspection. This was hot water at the occupied home’s whirlpool bath:
That is nasty. At least with the one I showed you could dump some bubbles in to disguse the pee coloration. The one you showed looks like a fudge factory.
That has happened a couple times now at my house. Well caved in and I got pretty muddy water for a spell. Solution; more drilling and pounding casing in deeper. Not so much fun.
Water test is the only way to go. Have seen this from wells, but not much from city or community water supply. If there is a hole in the main to the house it will act like a suction when a large amount of water is run in the house. Then it will leak like the devil when the water isn’t running. Michael is probably right though on the pee colored one.
Wouldn’t want to drink either one.
