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.

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

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

The old cartouches looked a bit grotty.

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.
