I searched but didn't see anything on this.
anyone ever flushed the whole house with iron out? I am rebuilding my iron filter and while I wait for my media it is soaking with iron out solution. so rather than dump it down the drain I was thinking I might flush the house. The previous owner clogged the iron filter and had it in bypass so all my pipes and fixtures have a nice thin coating of rust dust in them.
I figured I would drain the system and water heater then pump the solution through. let it sit for an hour before flushing it with fresh water.
House is all copper pipe.
