Ive been living in a 100 yr old brownstone for about a week. the water has been fine — until tonight and its running very sligtly brown in both showers and bathtubs, even after running it for ten minutes. any idea what could cause this? this hasnt been the case before. the boiler is extremely old. no idea if that could be a possiblity, but i read somewhere that sediment in a water heater can end up in your pipes. any advice? thanks a lot
