You guys helped me 3 years ago when my well gave out.
At that time I purchased a PV1A system but did not install it because the pump change "stirred up" the iron in the well (And I procrastinate...)
In a thread back then, Valveman posted:
"The CSV1A is designed to handle dirt and iron. Iron and dirt doesn't hurt the CSV1A anymore than it will hurt the pump, check valve, pressure switch nipple, etc. And if the CSV1A becomes clogged with iron like a check valve does, it can easily be taken apart and cleaned."
However, I figured I'd wait until the water "cleaned up."
That has not happened.
Attached are pictures showing:
1. Filter prior to well swap - Changed every 3-4 months or longer.
2. Filter since well swap - Must be changed about monthly.
3. Close up.
Questions:
Can I install the CSV1A (same as a PV1A, correct?)
Do I still install the CSV first in line in the house (Before whole house filter and softener?)
Anything else I need to do / know?
Upon answering this part, I will get to the softener and drinkability of the water next.
(The water tastes horrible)
THANK YOU in advance.
