Sediment Filtration for Wells in O Brien, TX

Sediment Filtration for Wells in O Brien, TX

Sand, silt and grit from a well wear out faucet cartridges, clog aerators, jam toilet fill valves and scratch the seats inside appliance solenoids. They also foul any well water treatment system downstream. O Brien, TX Well Water Treatment installs sediment filtration for wells in O Brien, TX.

The right filter depends on the particle size. Coarse sand drops out in a spin-down screen filter with a flush valve at the bottom, often rated 100 to 200 mesh. Finer silt needs a cartridge housing with a 20 or 5 micron pleated or spun cartridge. For heavy loads, a backwashing filter with a media bed saves you from changing cartridges every couple of weeks.

We also look at why the sediment is there. Sudden sand can mean a pump set too close to the bottom of the well, a failing well screen, or a pump that is oversized and pulling too hard. A filter will hide that problem for a while, so we tell you if we see signs of it.

Typical setup: spin-down first, then a cartridge, then the iron filter, softener or UV.
