[quote=Anonymous]I recently went to visit my brother and we stayed in the wing of the house where his now college kids used to be.  We went to give our kids a bath in the tub.  Since their cousins are all older, they only take showers.  I switched the water to the tub faucet and it came out brown and green.  Pretty disgusting.  But we let the water run about 5 minutes and the water came out clear.  My brother guestimated that that it had likely been 6-7 years since anyone took a bath in the tub and that was just crud/rust/build-up in the fixture.  I would suggest running the toilet and propping the toilet flapper up for about 5 minutes and letting it run water through the system.  Was the house unoccupied for several months between when the sellers moved out and when you moved in?  Or is the toilet one that they would not have used much?  Do you have this problem in any other faucet in the  house (kitchen sink, master bath, etc)?  If not then this is likely just a problem with the one fixture that wasn't used much.[/quote]
