    Updating a 4 home class B well system question

    I am interested in using the CSV setup. Can I install it "before" the good 119 gallon Challenger PC366R tank and just remove the bad tank? That way I would have like 30 gallons in reserve if the power fails, too. Seems like this would be a decent working system and protect the pump from...

    Updating a 4 home class B well system question

    Thanks, many years ago I volunteered with King 40, then got hired full time. I now work for Renton Regional Fire Authority, an RFA (giant fire district). Thanks for stepping up in Grant county. I'm good on the water testing and so far, it tests great. I will check on the group B designs...

    hot water recirculation pump connection to tank

    I took it apart today and the swing check valve swung... I guess it works fine. I found more of that jelly gunk and feel that may have had something to do with the valve being held open a bit.. I also increased the temp on the recirc pump so it works more often. I replaced the aluminum anode...

    hot water recirculation pump connection to tank

    HI, I installed a loop hot water PEX system with three remote manifolds. As the hot water loop ends at the base of the hot water tank, it is met with a Grundfos UP-10 pump that I have fed into a check valve (correct direction) that is fed into the tank drain outlet. It works fine 95% of...
