Over several years we noticed a drop in water pressure so I decided to increase the cut-in setting on the pump switch. But I first wanted to check the air pressure in the bladder pressure tank, so I drained the tank and added some air (38psi), and then set the cut-in to 40psi and cut-out to 60 (it was set at 30/50). One day later we started getting excessive amounts of sediment (sand mostly) in our filter, so much so that it was also visible in the toilets. What happened? Did I stir up accumulated sediment in the pressure tank? I usually change the filter every 2-3 months, now I need to change it every couple days. Any thoughts on what I should do? Just keep changing the filters until things settle out? This has only been going on for 4 days.
Thanks!
