Iron In Well

[Dale002]

HELP! This is what a new 1 micron filter looks like after two weeks.
What can I do to solve this or do I need to think about drilling a new well and if so how far from the existing well can I go? My well is 75 feet deep, pump sits at 60ft and water level at 35ft.
Any help would be appriciated.

You need some assistance from a water treatment company

Until about 6 months ago, I changed filters every 3 months and would only have a slight shade of orange

Did something change in your area, was there a new well drilled, or anything hydrofracked? A few years ago, they did a lot of dewatering in our area to install sewer lines, and I had to change filters mor often, now it's much better.

No, all the same. I'm in rural north florida, not much happens here. a few years ago the pump quit and had to purchase one in a hurry. The only one available with the specs I needed had the outlet made of steel instead of plastic as before. Could this be causing the issue?

I doubt it.
