Making a sediment filter for my spring fed water system

For my Spring Hill campground I have a watering system that is collected from a spring. It can deliver pressurized water without pumps using elevation to create pressure. There has been a fair amount of sediment getting into the system. Today I am creating a sediment filter with a 5 gallon buck, some pvc pipe and a pool filter cartridge. Here is the link to a video on gathering the water. • Water system completed...

After the first mouse falls in that bucket you will make one with a lid!

@@FlanaganHomestead there is something about mice and buckets of water. It is like a magnet.

Consider spray painting or buying a cover for the IBC tote otherwise it might grow Algae over time.

Thank you. That is a good suggestion.

So sand, silt, leaves, sticks all have microbes on them and bacteria grows. So this is filtered for big stuff but still not safe to drink.

Had it tested. Safe to drink.

Two things: 1: should have turned the bucket upside down and drilled the hole from the outside. 2: i rhink that filter is/was designed to be completely submerged, but your system only has the bottom quarter or third of it submerged. Maybe instead drill the hole in the bucket up high on the side and place the end cap on the bottom. At the top end of the filter, a 90° elbow that then runs the pipe out through the side. The bucket will fill up and submerge the filter. Hope my 2¢ makes sense. (Or cents) 😂
