Water Filtration System - Filtered Water Appears Cloudy

If you observe that the filtered water from a filtration system such as a Whole House, Single Stage or Dual Stage Filtration System appears cloudy, this is not a cause for concern. This is a normal occurrence with filtration systems.

Observing Filtered Water That Appears Cloudy 

It is possible for some air to remain in the corners of the filter housing after an installation, or especially after a filter change. This trapped air is what causes the water to have this cloudy texture or appearance which will clear up after two to three weeks. You can check for trapped air by filling a glass with water. Over a few minutes, you will see small bubbles that dissipate from the bottom up. These bubbles are trapped air.

It is also possible to see black particles in the water. These particles are excess carbon dust from the filter. You can flush them out by turning the water on for 10 minutes.
