L’eau potable?

Chez nous is the water potable?

That is the question that we are suddenly asking ourselves.

As the nights are getting colder, I was looking at an email the propriétaire had sent us back in May about how to get them to work.

And then I saw something that had completely escaped my attention.

Our water has a filtration system and those filters need to be changed every three months.

The landlord said he did it just before we moved in……five months ago.

Hmmm – should they look that colour?

We made a trip pretty sharpish to SCP – Société du Canal de Provence – to buy some new ones.

Les nouvelles cartouches

The vendeur explained how to replace them and, after a few false starts, I got the system working again.

That looks a lot better

The old cartouches looked a bit grotty.

Yuck

The man at SCP said there is also a lightbulb that needs to be changed once a year.

Have emailed the landlord to see how quickly a return trip is needed.
