Nifty Particulates

One side benefit of getting the radon water handler installed is that they put a particulate filter in line before the radon bubbler. This serves to protect the radon system from building up too much sludge in it's big black box.
The filter housing is clear, so you can see when it needs changing. I don't use a ton of water, and the the well water is pretty clean, but it's neat to see what the filter is knocking out of the stream.
Neat.
 I'm sure much of it is blueish because that's the color of the PEX pipe that Radon Guy Dave used to zig zag all over my basement. (Blue = cold water.) Now that no one should be messing around with the pipes, it should sort it's self out. It will be interesting to watch over time, (but I was also the kid who really enjoyed sticking my head in the pond and watching the stuff under the water.)
