I have a Pro Chem Direct that I've been using it for about two years. I noticed small dark particles showing up in the water that disburse and color the water gray if I pour out into a bottle. The particles are almost to small to see and they are water soluable. I'm concerned but not sure at what point they are getting in the water. I know they don't come from the fresh water tank. I primarily use an acid rinse and wonder if that has something to do with it. It could be a seal but the particles are easily disbursed with water. I appreciate any help Thanks

most likely it's your hoses. They get old and fall apart like everyhing else. Hook up a waterline take the fitting off the free end, and run the pump. If the water is black thats your problem. Just let the water run through the hose until it comes out clean. Repeat the process with your other hoses.
