Brown water ;(

[romgar1]

For those of you who know me, since, my house burned I have lived in a borrowed camper. I will be moving to a real house in a month. The camper has well water which taste great. Only one bad thing about it, without a filter its brown. I have been standing next to the faucet for about 15 minutes waiting for the water to run clear. I NEED COFFEE!!!!!!!!!

Ewww, I hate it for you. I think I'd be buying lots of gallons of water.

Oh wow. Stay warm if it's cold there. Good luck.

I live in Alabama so not that cold. I have two heaters just in case. Yes buying water in a few minutes. I used a few coffee filters to get the dirt out lol

Watch out for these guys: http://www.cdc.gov/healthywater/drinking/private/wells/disease/giardia.html
They give "brown water" a whole new meaning ;)

Not to get you worried, as I sure expect it's nothing like that.

Septic tank and water well cross contamination?

I also have well water, our damn filter needs constant replacing. You might want to get one of those purina filters, idk if the name is correct... You know you stick it on a faucet. Either that or the ones where you fill up the top area of the jug and let it trickle down thru a filter.

The on-faucet filters are not meant for turbid water, and will not work well. If it was short term, I'd just run the drinking water through my ceramic camping filter.
