I get sediment in my water after I turn on power after I have completely drained my wx-202 bladder tank; removed power and drained. It does clear up after tens of gallons of use. Is this a problem.

Sounds like a little iron or silt sediment. If it clears up in 10 gallons, you are lucky. Does not sound like a problem.

Sounds fairly normal. Why are you draining the tank?

Are you getting silt out of your faucets? Is that why you drained your bladder tank? Could be your water table is falling and the well's closing in. If it gets worse call in a well company to check. Good luck. Tom
