brown water in tub

Brown water in your tub usually means one of three things: disturbed sediment from aging pipes, a corroded water heater anode rod, or a city main disturbance. In most cases it’s not a health emergency — but it signals a problem that won’t fix itself. This LA guide covers how to diagnose the cause by where in your home the brown water appears, what to do first, and when discolored water indicates a pipe failure that needs immediate attention.
