Balr14,

The solution to the dirt leaking into the water chamber as you described is to wrap the PVC pipes with nylon panty hose, toe end on the bottom and open at the top, or you can just tie a knot in the hose for the bottom, either way works great. On the top of the PVC just put a couple of dabs of glue on the inside rim and press the hose into it to prevent slippage.
