Mike:–How new is your new house? Does it have galvanized piping for a water system? Does this happen only with the hot water? Only with the cold water? Only in the bath tub? Could this be coming from a water heater with a damaged glass lining? I am familiar with the terms, and it is possible that your builder is applying a tensive force on your lower extremity (pulling your leg). I would get a qualified second opinion from an objective source,before any warranty or guarantee expires. Lots of luck…BudHi, : This is an update to the rusty water problem I posted on 11/11/98. The water from the bathtub main in my new home comes out rusty for a few seconds before it clears. To fix the problem, the builder used a copper extension and replaced a galvanized nipple. Im not very familiar with the terms, can anyone tell me how the problem was fixed or whether the problem is fixed?: Your responses will be much appreciated!
