If you've just placed that water pipe give it a few minutes as the icons don't always vanish straight away.

its been up for a bit, i can fix it by replacing it but everytime i open the save it does it again

It looks like you've moved the actual node away from the pipe? That can cause issues.

There's something going on there. That main pipeline along the road should provide more than enough coverage for water for those two rows of housing, making that extra set of piping you've added redundant.
Are you certain that the whole of the water network is one circuit and that there are no gaps in connectivity from any of your water suppliers?

all the pipes are on the same network and i removed the nodes sticking out of the pipe and they are still asking

Have you tried re-making the long straight pipe? It may be corrupted.

Please post a screenshot of the whole city with the water overlay on, or post a link to a shared savegame so that we may examine it firsthand.

I fully agree with grapplehoeker.

Try to see where your water resources are. If they are very far away that can cause sometimes this is. Place a water resource closer and the problem is solved. I know that it can even happen if you have your water resources on max. Could be a bug of the game. Make sure you interlink your water with as many different ways as water can flow through the map

Its not an direct solution, but this works if you hate placing these down after you build the road. Remove Need For Water Pipes is a mod that allows you to completely remove all the water pipes, so you dont have to do the extra labor of placing pipes down! It solves your problem and makes the game a lot more fun, removing an unnecessary step in building you city, since it can only be seen in the underground view. Be mindful that you still have to place just one pipe beside your water service buildings because only then does it recognize the water building as connected. I have this mod enabled all the time!
