Best Answer

Mineral deposits; most are formed in your pipes when water is not flowing. The aerator can be removed and cleaned extending the life of the aerator. The aerator will eventually deteriorate and should be replaced. Depending on your water supply and the pipes, the minerals can be several different colors.

You replaced a dish washer Shortly afterwards the kitchen sink faucet began to continue to run a few seconds after shutting it off There is a white sediment in the water Any solutions?

Your kitchen faucet is getting bad, the water line that runs to the dishwasher from the branch under the sink has nothing to do with the faucet. the only way the faucet would run is because the gaskets or seats are getting bad. The dishwasher will not affect any water in the house,water goes into the dishwasher and leaves through the drain, it never will reenter the water system,so if you have a white residue,it sounds like you have hard water. If this sediment is inside the washer,you might not be using the right soap for it. Also, the water for the dishwasher should be hooked up to the hot water line not cold.

If you have well water the white particles could be calcium/hardness build up. If you have city water , call your provider and get them out to test it.If you have well water , get it tested by a local water pump and filtration company.If it is hardness , you will need a water softener.To answer the question , it is not normally harmful,however, find out what it is , consult your physician , only a doctor can answer the question correctly.


What causes white foam when kitchen faucet is turned on?

eliminate the possible answers that don't fit first. It is not air in the water since other faucets in the house or the previous faucets have this behavior. It is not an aerator. Water does oxidize, to a small extent, the inside of metal pipes and faucets. It coats them in a way. Until this takes place air bubbles may be forming on the metal in the faucet. It may have a chemical component from the manufacturing process since the new faucets I have are the California lead free brass variety. The foam is very impressive but goes away very fast and takes time to regenerate for another occurrence. I have had other faucets do this before but the new lead free brass is incredibly foamy. Creepy, yes and I do remember, from somewhere in the past, the instruction to run the water in a faucet for a second or two before drinking it due to metals leaching out of the valve body.
