The paper discusses the elements of a
program for providing a routine health check on filters, with emphasis on the analytical
chemical and physical testing that can and should be conducted to detect early "health"
problems and maintain filters in top physical condition. This paper is based on information collected from over three dozen water utilities in the United
States, Canada, United Kingdom and Australia, the published literature and the experience of
the authors and their associates, and included in the recently published AwwaRF "Filter
Maintenance and Operations Guidance Manual". This program usually requires an
inspection team with a combination of technical skills to perform all of the sample collection and
testing, including plant operations, maintenance and laboratory personnel. Includes 6 references, tables, figure.
