I just purchased an older home from the 50's that had been vacated for 4 months prior to my family moving in. I have brown water coming from all faucets in kitchen and bathroom. I was told that it was rust because I have old galvanized pipes, and that it will clear itself out. Well, 1 month later, I still have shades of brown water when I first cut on the water, and then it goes away. This weekend, I had to cut off the water to the house in order to change the water pressure regulator. The water was off for about 4 hours, and when I finally cut it back on, the water was brown again, like it was when we first moved in. What should I do?
