Sand in Water

Topic: Sand in Water

I am in rural Gujarat, India. We constructed a new house. First time, cheap water pump was used. The output of water wasn't good. There was a question net type filter being applied during the boring. Some people said put that filter on, some people said not needed.

After replacing the cheap water pump with a better quality one. We are getting water. But it has Sand in it. Making the water undrinkable. What can be done to solve the problem? Or is the Sand in Water for short period then the water will be clean,

Is there a special filter that has to be fitted? What brand? Where to place it? A picture would be nice.

Thanks in advance!

Post subject: How to get clean water from bore well?

It seems that bore well is not fully developed at the time of fixing water pump. Also the gravels are not filled around casing pipes as additional precaution so that mud and sand do not enter the perforated pipes with water when the pump is operated.
                         
Now, to develop bore well operate pump continuously at least for 10 to 12 hours with small intervals. After the development of bore well you will get clean water and the water will be cleaner with the passage of time.
                       
It is also advisable to take help of local tube well fitter who deals with setting up of tube wells, water pumps etc.
