Pentak polypropylene bag filter, supposedly sold at Home Depot, for under $10 seems like a good idea. It goes over the foot valve and keeps silt and small debris from getting sucked up through the foot valve.
Have never used one but could be a good move. Anyone here use one of these Pentak bag filters? Cleaning it on a monthly basis would be nice, which is difficult to do in the winter what with the ice?
