Shianne Richardson, of North Hampton, told News Center 7 that she spends “upwards of $100″ each month, on top of her water bill, on bottled water jugs. That’s all because of how inconsistent the water has been coming out of her pipes for over 10 years.

“We can’t feed it to our animals [and] we can’t drink it ourselves,” Richardson said.

As reported on News Center 7 at 6:00 , Richardson shared a video of the water and claimed it’s been an issue since they moved in nearly 11 years ago.

“It’s very inconsistent,” she said. “One day it will smell like bleach, like a straight chlorinated, heavily chlorinated swimming pool.”

Then the water will change in the next day or even just a few hours later.

“It will be brown like mud,” she described. “Just like straight out of my faucet brown. More than rusty like well water type of thing; just brown.”
