Default Which type filter should we use for silt and cloudy water?

We just purchased a home with a well. The water is cloudy with grey
silt sediment. We purchased a GE Smar****er Filtration System. We
have tried the Pleated and Polypropylene 15 & 20 Micron Filters, which
only last 1-2 weeks at the most. Any suggestion as to the correct type
of filter to use for this specific problem? I feel like we're throwing
money away replacing filters that don't do the job. Any help will be
greatly appreciated!


A sand filter should help. A large tank to allow settling time would
help a lot.
