i've had a lot of problems lately with our shower and sink. i live on the fourth floor of an apartment building. in the mourning the water takes a long time to heat up, which is understandable when everyone is taking a shower before work. but many times the water just stops coming out in the middle of the shower and won't return for a long time.
the water also goes off during the afternoon. sometimes you'll turn on the sink in the bathroom and or the kitchen and nothing will come out, when it decides to come out after this has happened, it bursts out violently and occassionally but not always, has a yellowish tint.
does my lack of water have to do with some sort of vapor lock? or is it something else? how do i fix it? PLEASE HELP, I NEED A SHOWER!!!

Is that what i smelled.??? Very Happy

And here i was thinking it was my shoes. The blast is from air in the lines. With out a doubt. call the landlord and have him\her get a plumber. there may be several causes to the problem. with out being there i could only guess at the cause. Crying or Very sad
