Milky looking water

This is an indication of dissolved air in the water. This condition is often associated with the water supply system such as the well pump sucking air or a malfuncioning pressure tank.

Always have your water tested and base any treatment on those results. Our Water Quality Interpretation Tool will aid you in your decisions.
