Cloudy water with bubbles is normal after installation or filter changes.
Cause: Trapped air in the system.
Resolution:
- The bubbles are harmless and will clear on their own.
- They will disappear as the system flushes out the trapped air over several days.
- No action is required. The water is safe.
Note: This is distinct from black water, which can occur when flushing new carbon filters. That should also clear with flushing.
