Default how to remove sand from wellpoint water

Hi All !

I have a wellpoint with pump hooked up to the garden sprinkler system.
The problem is that I live in a sandy area and a lot of fine sand
comes up with the water, clogging up the water jets. I've fitted small
in-line filters, but these block up in only a few short hours, and
besides, the fine sand get through in any case.

The local hardware stores have been unble to provide solutions - could
only suggest "very expensive sandtraps".

I'm looking for an easy solution, preferably DIY. Anyone out there
who'se had the same thing and solved it, I 'd like to hear from you.

Thanx in advance.

DD
