Innocent Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 [quote name='Hasan' timestamp='1344738040' post='2466320'] [color=#282828][font=Segoe UI', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]If it is an apartment, I doubt if your water is anything other than city water. Sewage backup in the basement should not contaminate your tap water. The water supply and sewage are separated. The pressure from the water supply intake would prevent such contamination. You'd basically have to intentionally sabotage this configuration to have sewage water contaminate your tap water.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=Segoe UI', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]That said. I still go with Luigi's recommendation. [/font][/color] Also Fides was joking. Sewer would have to have a higher pressure to infiltrate potable water. It can happen in certain instances but not likely near a building. Odor, color, or taste is iron or sulphur. Being as its your basement drain, it's probably sewage. A septic -drain field system isn't practical for apartments or soil conditions that allow basements. I could easily bore you with why, LOL. There are a number of reasons why a drain would back up, but there are a dozen factors, age size soil weather erc etc etc. Did you notify the landlord? Also, I drink Guinness or Old Rasputin. Or Pa's Blue Ribbon. Or really anything. Actually whatever gets the most beer at the highest alcohol content is best.

ardillacid Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 Well, fourth time today. I knew it was coming, my apartment kind of had this funny smell for a couple days, and now there is poo everywhere in the basement. Calling the landlord tomorrow to set up a meeting to discuss voiding this contract. I'm not flooping paying for this poo anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
