Generally, there are no noticeable changes in water quality as a result of this temporary conversion, according to a city news release.  However, some individuals may notice taste and odor changes and a slight discoloration to the water. Some iron particles may still make it into customer service lines despite the City\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s efforts. Customers who experience discoloration should temporarily flush faucets, tubs and toilets, until the water has cleared. Clothing should not be washed during times of discoloration to reduce the possibility of staining. Prior to washing clothing, customers may want to run a little water in a bathtub to check for discoloration. Periodic pressure drops may also be experienced. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Customers can safely consume and use their drinking water as normal during the conversion period.
