My water supply lines in my home are full of gunk after a well problem-how can I flush/clean them?
Q. The well had a pinhole in the "up" pipe, and was washing all kinds of sludge into the well, which then wound up in my supply lines. It is mostly manganese, I am told, The well was fixed, of course, but junk occassionally shows up when I run the tub, for example, as small particles of oily black stuff. I'm pretty sure the supply lines are full of the stuff.

A. start first by flushing your hose bibbs and laundry box valves. flush all filters, backwash or change elements. remove your aerators and flush your faucets. drain and flush your water heater. flush your ice maker line and change the filter. remove your tub/shower cartridges and flush valve bodies. replace or clean your shower heads. clean your toilet tanks. check aerators often to gauge effectiveness.
