Hello folks:
I've been reading some of the threads about whole house filters and am a little confused, so I'll ask right out: Is it likely that bacteria will grow in a whole house water filter?
I'm planning on using a back-washing 80 micron mesh screen, plus a big blue 20-inch cartridge. The water now is excellent except for some clay sediment.
Also, the water is often shut off for periods of four to six weeks. So the water will be sitting in the filters, although they should be air tight.
Thanks.
