Fresh Water System Cleaning and Maintenance
filters, left inline, trap bio material which then decomposes. filters are
Perti dishes to a water system, or so I was told by a guy who spent his career designing filtration systems of various kinds. He said the best system is to filter the water you need for the next short period of time and then store the filter dry until the next time. After rinsing the residual antifreeze out of my sailboat fresh water system extensively, I filled the (~100 gallon stainless) tanks through a simple carbon filter. Only a few weeks later, the water coming out the galley and head sinks, cold or hot, has a definite sulfur odor. What are the best treatments for fresh water system "purification"? Are they all one-time-through-and rise-out approaches, or are there safe, non-toxic things that can be left in the water as well? |
