How safe is our drinking water?

This is our water filter that is installed at the point of entry to our house. After a year ++ its "laundry" time.Look at how dirty is the 'linen'( not sure what it is made up of?) that is rolled in the filter.

The pictures shown is step by step from the moment the filter is being opened by the technician.

Look at the pool of water that is spilled out when the filter is opened.




Inside the filter.




Close up of the 'linen'.




The technician scraped the sides of the 'linen.



At the base of the filter after the linen is removed.Notice the color of water has changed.




The technician has to use a high pressure jet spray to clean the 'linen'.



Look at the pool of water. Notice the color of it.Almost the same color as the tarmac.




The stains left on the floor.



He uses a high pressure jet to remove the stains.



Thinking of getting a water filter? I have also installed an internal water filter next to my kitchen sink.
