What Causes Cloudy Water?
There are a few reasons your water may appear cloudy:
- Air bubbles from pressure changes in plumbing
- Sediment or silt from groundwater or aging pipes
- Organic matter from nearby soil runoff
- Excess minerals like calcium or magnesium
These issues are more common in homes with private wells or older infrastructure, especially in areas like Richmond, Chesapeake, and Charlottesville.
How We Treat Cloudy Water
At ClearWave, we start with testing to confirm what’s in your water. From there, we may recommend:
- Sediment filtration to remove visible particles
- Carbon filters for organic matter and taste/odor issues
- Whole-house water filtration systems for consistent clarity
Each solution is sized and installed based on your home’s plumbing and water quality.
