Rust colored pre filter-- Anyone else?--

[randallino]

Oceanic,
I live in Vancouver and I am having the same issues. Brand new plumbing trough out the house. City of Vancouver replaced the water line in the street about 3 years ago. This usually happens more in the winter with the heavy rains, not during the late summer early fall. I have to replace my filters every ~3weeks and this has been going on since May.

Didn't she just have a baby, shouldn't you be cleaning the toilets

Yeah good call!

She hasn't cleaned them since the baby arrived. Having said that we are looking for a new maid, let me know if you are interested! The pay is "OK" and we just bought a big puffy new dog bed from Costco so the accommodations are pretty good, the bed even has a nice therapeutic cedar smell to keep the fleas away!

Of course I am just giving you a hard time!

When can I start, I will be sure to get all the neccesary shots before I enter!

Hi Ian,
Same issue in Mission with my RO-DI. I also get the same rust color deposit in the toilet and bathroom sink.

So what the heck is the deal with this, it is costing me a fortune in pre-filters and carbon filters. Not to mention it is likely shortening the life of my RO membrane and DI filter!!!

I am not too crazy about the idea of ingesting this either.

Whatever it is...
