Our house is fed by a spring. The water is soft and so on the acidic side. We had a new upstairs WC and sink fitted. However, over time the WC has gained some green stains down the inside back, where the water flushes down. I am guessing these are caused by the soft water and maybe some...

Hello everyone, I apologise if there was a thread regarding this topic. I am a first time renter and I have noticed weird residue on the pipes - could you please shed some light on the subject for me? Is it worrying? I have noticed that the pipes in that area we're wet a couple of month ago...
