An all too familiar picture there. Our filter is not as brown in KY as it was in FL, but I am still grateful each year when we change it.
Thank you for explaining the filtration process such as flocculation as well. I enjoy reading how different filters work. :)
I had no idea abut the FLOC process until I wrote this article. Thank goodness we don't absorb the Aluminum Chlorohydrate in our drinking water...well, that is unless we have an empty stomach when we drink our water. Another reason why I filter my water! The water from our tap looks so clean...lololol
