The upstairs' women's bathroom in HH appears to have yellow water running out from the hot water tap.
At first I figured since it's exam time, the pipe's just ..doing pipe things and let the water run.
Until it became darker the more it ran.

The cold water tap is fine.
And oddly enough, the hot water stream is completely clear. I stuck a finger through it and the water drops were transparent. But when it hits the sink it becomes this ugly sulfurous colour which doesn't happen with the cold tap.

So three reasons for this post:
A. To inform
B. To inquire: (Why is this happening?)
C. To inquire about how it could be fixed. (I really like that bathroom)

The same thing was happening in the men's bathroom on the main floor.

Emailed earlier today:

Hot water is back on in Hamilton Hall. Aerators have been cleaned. Occupants may notice some slight colouring to the water, but it should clear up by the end of the day. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
