I am residing in Nemom Panchayat in Trivandrum, Kerala. The water supplied by my Panchayath is not properly filtered. Especially in rainy days the water looks as dirty as direct river water.For drinking purposes ceramic filter works ok. For bathing and washing I need clean water in larger volumes. I constructed a Sand filter wih 200 L Sintex tank, filling half of it with sand.This did not solve the issue. In this regard, I look forward for expert guidance as how to construct a whole house water filter with flow rate of about 200 Litres or above per hour. If a mesh type of filter could be used, what should be the micron spec required?

Kindly advise me on these matters.
