Top of page What causes a milky/cloudy appearance when running my hot water?

Aerators at faucets introduce additional air to the water and when collected in a glass the agitated water appears milky or cloudy. • Additional air can be introduced to city water supplies at the pumping station when air is pumped into the water mains to increase pressure. • In private well water systems, artesian pressure can cause air entrapment.

• When water utility companies switch from one deep well source to another, excessive air can develop in the system. • Soluble gases such as Oxygen, Chlorine, Carbon Dioxide, Hydrogen Sulfide and others may be present in the water. These gases may come out of solution as the water temperature increases.

• Underground temperature changes in water sources (particularly in spring and fall) cause air to expand. In these examples, the oxygenation causing the discolored water (small bubbles) may be unpleasant to look at but clears up in a short time. If not, the water company should be consulted.

Any air found in the water is not considered ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
