I live in the Poconos Pa. area and my house was built in 1996 (15 years}
I thought it was best to replace my water heater and also my water Filter next to the water heater.
Anyways
The plumber showed me how bad the OLD water filter was,,It was eaten out the filter (Yuk}
Lots of water Presure
up till last year when I filled my jacuzzi it looked liked that the water was pretty cleaned
Last winter the water was very dark and stuff flooting around (again Yuk}
I never replaced the water filter in the 8 years I lived here.
Anyways I replaced the filter a few days ago with a cheap $30 whilpool filter from lowes.
Once installed
after 15 mins of useing you would see BLACK sediment all over the filter but the water looks clean
in a glass and the presure is good.
I cleaned the Dirty black sediment filters a few times the First day and no change with a hose and still black sediment
and the past 3 days I have cleaned and put the filters back in butttt still that same amount of black sediment.
What do you good folks think might be the problem?
To me since the Filter was eaten aways and I have been getting UNfiltered water for a long time,,,I
would think its the well?
What would you all do?....JT
