Tank water

[rvagnoni]

We recently did a job cleaning a deck and was connected to the customers water source. We didn't notice this right away, but the water that was refilling the tank had a brownish color. Should we be concerned about this? Will it do damage to our pump? Should we drain the tank?

Sounds like you were pulling from a well with alot of iron in it. If the water is left in the tank the iron will settle to the bottom. I would drain it and refill from a good source.

I have seen worse without dammage to the pump. As long as you clean it out and put fresh in it will probobly be okay.
