Don't drink from radiators - Scythe13 - 4 March 2013
Just having a chat with a plumber who was reading a newspaper and he started saying about the idea of prepping...without using that term.
He said people will be desperate for water and would drink from radiators only to find they're full of chemicals, and "black sludge, like oil it is" at the bottom of their radiators.
I admit I didn't know about the oily crap, but knew about the chemicals.
So, just incase anyone is planning to (I doubt any of you are, but he was certain people definitely would do it) don't drink out of radiators!!!

Thanks for letting us know about the oil. I knew about the chemicals too but not the oil.
It however is such an awful thought...
But of course the sheeple will certainly drink the stuff...fools that they are...

ive drained central heating systems,
the last thing id ever consider drinking is the water from one.
even after filtering.
i dont even think id water plants with it if i was going to eat them.
luckily , living in the uk, we should never have to go too long without water.
even in the summer it rains.

Great point, Luci.
But with sheeple being as brainless as they are, there is every chance that many will die of thirst even when it rains for 2 days straight...

I laughed at this. You're spot on though. It'll be p*ssing down & they'll be indoors while people with sense are setting up extra water traps.

had to drain a radiator once, you wouldnt want to drink what came out of that!!

All the water in my heating system radiators is chemically treated with rust inhibitors and sludge preventers.
