A couple in China drank wastewater from their home tap for six months due to a plumber’s mistake Asian One. Now the man and the woman are asking for compensation.
According to media reports, the couple suspected something was wrong when their water was not turned off as promised. While the man surnamed Tang was trying to figure out the reason, he noticed that the water meter did not turn when the tap was turned on.
It turned out that the water flowing from the tap in the apartment was not tap water, but waste or “gray” water flowing from the washing machines, showers and sinks of other residents of the house. The couple said they drank this water for 6 months without expecting any capture. In addition, men and women begin to experience health problems and do not understand why they get sick so often.
When experts arrived at the apartment, they discovered an additional pipe connecting the wastewater drain to the water supply. Tan believes that such a structure was most likely accidentally built by a plumber during renovations.
The couple appealed to the court and demanded compensation from the company that rented the flat to them. The company said the pipes were indeed repaired, but that was done by homeowners who had nothing to do with them.
