Hello, I'm new here. Also, I'm at work, away from the problem.
This morning I was able to shower and otherwise use water in the house normally. After I was at work and my wife arose, she said when she flushed the toilet, she heard bubbling noise and air spurting. Then she went downstairs into the kitchen and found a similar air spurting situation there. She tried to let the water run, and there was dark crud coming out with the water, but she finally got water running throughout the house. About an hour later, she called me and said the air spurting problem has returned. Can anyone speculate what the problem might be, and what we can do until we can get a plumber out so as not to cause any further damage. As far as i know, my wife has not gone to the basement to inspect the water heater and water holding tank.
Thanks for any advice,
Jerry
