Yes! We do actually have shitty water..in fact, we now have to replumb much of our house because chemicals in our water have eroded a hole in a pipe, forcing us to manually turn off the water whenever we arent using it. Needless to say, NONE of that water touches my cars anymore unless it has a filter (such as Mr. Clean Auto Car & Drywash).

Flame away

I never know directly when we're supposed to boil water, but I know we technically have needed to on and off.

Thats for a different reason though. Its additional chemicals, instead of the regular batch we get from Sarasota County.

yeah, right

it would take so much work to get the city to take responsibility for that, it wouldn't even be worth the trouble in my opinion...
