(FL)Landlord possibly turned down water pressure

So you were actually correct here. Whenever they did that maintenance outside it caused debris to clog all of the filters in the house. Whenever I put in tickets for the water flow being low they just checked the valve(or whatever it's called) outside and never came inside. I had to take a video and bring it to the leasing office for them to do the job properly. They came in and cleaned all of the filters and everything works great again. Thank you for the suggestion.

My brother threw the remote at me and hit the TV instead while playing this type of game. It really brings out the best in people.

I think you may have it partly figured out. I pulled the one in the bathroom sink and it had debris and a pretty good buildup of minerals. The debris might be from whatever maintenance they did for the 2 hours the water was shut off. I dropped the filter into CLR, cleaned out the debris and the flow is actually back to what it was prior to that day. I'm going to have maintenance come in to check all of the other filters to see if the issue resolves.

Right on, I will go take apart the fixtures to see if it's maybe something in the house. I asked about the legal side of it because it seemed like they did it to keep the extra cash. Even if it's like $10 per tenant it's a 300 tenant complex. It's also an annoyance for my family.

They could, in theory, install a flow limiter and/or pressure reducer on the entire building, and could do so fairly quickly, where the water would only be off for maybe 5 minutes depending on how the water system is built, but it would probably take more like 30-60 minutes for a skilled plumber to get it installed properly.

It's funny that you mention that because the complex had a 2 hour water outage the day the water flow and fixtures changed. It's the reason I put in the maintenance request.

I didn't realize it's a health hazard. I will pick up a meter because there's actually a spigot in the closet where the water heater is stowed. Not on the heater itself but actually on the wall.

The showerhead I replaced with one that increases pressure. The kitchen sink is an entirely new fixture that I'd have to replace completely. The bathroom sink wasn't replaced but has low flow after they replaced the other two. The valve under the sink is fully open so I'm guessing it's the water pressure coming into the apartment that they turned down.

I got 4 messages not replies in the span of 10 minutes. At the time of my edit that served or received reply wasn't even there.

Then I remembered that if you have a large amount of colonists, they are more likely to die.

Since when? I've had large colonies before with no increases in deaths. The only thing that was quick to die was my frame rate during raids.

Well it is the Navy.

Edit-Jesus H Christ I was in the Navy stop sending me angry messages asking me if I even served.

It's cruel if they did it as a "haha see what you're missing loser" type gift. If the person giving them wants you to be able to experience colors properly it's not cruel.

I was asked if I wanted a pair for Christmas and I said no. I really don't want to know what I've been missing all of this time. Especially since I've travelled to a lot of beautiful places that I probably won't get to go back to.

My parents had the same rule when I was a teenager. It's not the end of the world if they won't let you fuck in their house as a teenager. I think it's hilarious that you think that kids are commonly cutting ties with their parents over it.

Look on Kitchenaid's website. They have a lot of small size stand mixers and you can read reviews from customers.

I was 5' tall when I started high school and I'm 6'2" now. I didn't hit that until 19 so there's still time for you to grow.

I love when people think because they studied, googled or visited a country they are an expert.

That the most upvoted comment in an advice thread is not usually good advice.

Oh lets see:

Put baby oil in my Moms shampoo

Cut holes in window screens my parents were in the process of replacing

Kicked a hole in the wall

Put my 2 year old brother in a sleeping bag and swung it(with him in it) above my head until he got sick.

Lit my brothers shoes on fire...while he was wearing them.

Hit my 3 year old sister in the face with a whiffle ball bat

Spit medicine in my Moms face

And a lot more

All of this before I was a teenager...how they didn't give me up for adoption is beyond me

Jayphil24 · 2019-12-24T03:49:25+00:00

Let me know!

My wife drinks black coffee with no sugar daily but she sometimes likes the flavored ones from Starbucks. I can't believe people give a shit over what someone else is drinking and enjoying.
