If you look in the toilet tank and see a layer of dirt or debris at the bottom, it is likely that you have sediment in your water. Sediment contains particles such as rocks, dirt, rust, etc. that can clog the strainers in your faucets and showers.
City Water Filter offers a water purification solution for your needs by offering the Whole House Sediment Filter. Plumbing experts agrees that it is the Best Option to resolve this issue. The likelihood of sediment in other household appliances is high if sediment is found in the toilets. The Whole House Water Filtration System with Sediment filter is usually installed inside the garage were the main water pipe is entering the house (see picture below); however, the location is dependent upon where the main water line is entering your home. In some cases, sediment filters are required on well water, but there are many cases with city tap water containing too much sediment and particles.
The Whole House Sediment Filter is designed to remove dirt, rust, sand, scale particles, and all other particulates larger than 1-5 microns (a human hair is about 70-100 microns) without reducing or restricting the full flow of water. The Sediment filter extends the life of washing machines, water heaters, and other household appliances.
IT IS NECESSARY TO ADD A WHOLE HOUSE SEDIMENT FILTER TO PROTECT THE WHOLE HOUSE CARBON.
In some areas/cities with a bigger dirt problem such as San Francisco, Milpitas, Santa Clara, San Mateo, Palo Alto, and many more, it is necessary to add a whole house sediment filter along with a whole house carbon and softener. It prevents the dirt and particles from entering and clogging the whole house carbon and protects the softener. Without the sediment filter, more maintenance and filter replacement may be required than usual.
