Sediment Filtration

Sediment & Particle Filtration for Well Water

Why Is My Water Cloudy, Grey, or Clogging My Faucets?

If your faucet aerators keep clogging, your water has a grey or cloudy appearance, or you’re noticing gritty particles when you fill a glass — sediment in your water supply is the problem. It’s a common issue for homes on well water in Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio, and it gets worse over time as particles accumulate in your plumbing and appliances.

What Causes Sediment in Well Water?

Sediment enters your water from the geological formations surrounding your well. Sand, silt, clay, and other fine particles can make their way into your water supply through the well casing, especially in older wells or areas with softer rock formations.

Common signs of sediment in your water:

  • Clogged faucet aerators and showerheads
  • Grey, cloudy, or visibly discolored water
  • Gritty or sandy texture in water
  • Sediment buildup in the bottom of your water heater
  • Reduced water pressure over time
  • Premature wear on washing machine valves and dishwasher components

The Fix: Chatfield Water Systems Alluvium Sediment System

After we investigate the source and severity of your sediment issue, we typically install our Chatfield Water Systems Alluvium Sediment System. The Alluvium is a whole-home particle filtration system that captures sand, silt, clay, and other debris before they reach your plumbing, fixtures, and appliances.

The Alluvium protects everything downstream — your water heater, washing machine, dishwasher, and every faucet in your home.

Sediment doesn’t just make your water look bad — it causes real damage. Every particle that flows through your pipes is grinding against valves, building up in your water heater, and shortening the life of your appliances.
