Well water is known to have high levels of sediments and other suspended particles that can affect a household’s overall health. Sediment filters offer the ideal solution to remove sediments and other total dissolved salts from well water. However, they do not remove chemicals, heavy metals, viruses, or bacteria.
Sediment filters use a mechanical filtration process, which prevents harmful contaminants from entering the water supply. In this process, the water passes through a cartridge or filter, which has enough porosity to let water flow but captures dirt, sand, and other particles present in water. Sediment filters work basically as a net or screen to trap particulate matter. The effectiveness of a sediment filter in removing particles can depend on the filter’s type and size.
Sediment filters are the first stage of water purification and act as the first line of defense against various suspended solids. Their primary function is to remove or prohibit physical impurities, like sand, dirt, dust, and debris, from entering the water supply and affecting the performance of water filtration systems like RO and UV.
These filters also remove turbidity or cloudiness in the water, which can cause it to turn yellow or brown. They work as a preventative filtration method and do not change the taste or smell of water. A good sediment filter can effectively capture unwanted impurities, which are as small as 0.5 microns and are invisible to the naked eye. It improves the aesthetic value of water and protects water-using appliances and plumbing fixtures from damage.
Benefits of Sediment Filters
Every household needs a clean water supply. The water entering our home or business can have potentially hazardous suspended particles, which makes it essential to install a water filtration system to filter out the contaminants. Households relying on well water should consider a sediment filter. Here are the top benefits of adding sediment filters to catch dirt and debris:
Inexpensive:
Sediment filters are among the most popular due to their affordability. They provide property owners with an inexpensive way to filter water. Sediment filters are also readily available and pay for themselves after a few uses.
Prolong the life of the primary filter:
As a pre-filter, a sediment filter can prove valuable in extending the primary filter’s lifespan by removing suspended particles. A sediment filter protects the primary filter from premature degradation and enhances its performance.
Protect the plumbing system:
Suspended particles in unfiltered water can damage the plumbing fixtures and water-using appliances. A sediment filter removes these particles to boost the plumbing system’s functionality and reduce maintenance costs.
Easy to install and replace:
Sediment filters do not require special training or specialized equipment for their installation. Also, they are convenient to replace. Property owners can replace the filter by themselves, the frequency of which can depend on their water consumption, sediment concentration, and water source.
Improve water quality:
A sediment filter removes turbidity to ensure the water that enters the home is clean and clear. Water filtered through sediment filters is safer to drink than tap water.
A good sediment filter is essential for property owners looking to improve the quality of their well water and the efficiency of their primary filter. Different types of sediment filters are available, and a trained professional can assist in choosing the best one based on the type of sediments in the water that needs filtration.
