QUESTION
Muddy well water during the rainy season : Please suggest a good quality sediment filter and its availability in Chennai,TN

Hello,

I'm living in Noombal in Chennai for the past three years.

We have a well to cater to all our domestic water requirements.

The well is 3 years old and we pump out water to overhead tank and use it.

The overhead tank we constructed have two chambers(both are at the same level horizontally). Both the chambers are of equal dimensions.

The water is pumped into one chamber and passed on to another through a connecting pipe which is 2 inches above floor level of the tank. Then the water from second chamber is used for domestic purpose.

The well water is clean and usable for almost throughout year except rainy season. During rainy season the water becomes muddy(lightish brown in colour).

I'm thinking to use sediment filter which would purify the water of mud and I'm planning to have it fixed in the connecting pipe connecting the two chambers.

Could you please suggest a good quality economic filter for this purpose. And where I could I get it in Chennai.

Please suggest other solutions as well.

 

Regards

Ganesh.
