Hi Bill,
It's funny you mention the "Hot" side only, because that's where our problem is also. The cold side is crystal clear, and very little sand in the washing machine inlet for cold. The "Hot Water" side is what really fills with sand. When my wife complained it took half an hour to fill the washing machine, I took the hoses off, and the hot side was jam packed with sand. I have also removed my shower heads and found they too were clogged with sand. I am going to call to have my furnace cleaned and I will have them take an extra close look at the tankless hot water system. Thanks for the clue!
To answer the other post,(the one before your's. I forgot to see who wrote it before I started typing this reply.) No, we do not currently have any filter on the water, other than the one for the ice maker.
Thanks again!
