Cloudy or sandy water

Why is my tap water cloudy?

Cloudy water is often harmless air bubbles, but sediment can be a sign something else is going on.

Is it air or something else?

Fill a clear glass and watch it. If the cloudiness clears from the bottom up in a minute or so, it is usually tiny air bubbles. That is normal and harmless.

When sediment is the cause

If the water stays cloudy, or you see sand or specks settle at the bottom, sediment may be getting into your pipes. This is more common with private wells.

What you can do

A sediment filter can help reduce particles. A free water test can show whether you need one, and what size.
