I am struggling with this timer losing time. The timer controls a sprinkler that is attached to my OSSF. This is an aerobic septic system that pumps out through sprinklers. I began to see the sprinklers running at odd times. The current time setting on the timer was losing time. I replaced...

I need to shut the house water supply. I want to change a Moen single handle cartridge. I have a private well outside with a pressure tank and Rayne conditioner in the garage. I have no idea which valves to turn. There is a large valve attached to a pipe coming from the pressure tank, a ball...

I just noticed a leak under my pressure tank in the garage. This tank was installed July 2006. The previous one (same model) was installed in 2002 and failed the same way. The leaking water is very rusty. Water pressure and quality in house is unaffected, so far. Are these tanks prone to...

My gauge has frozen again. Can anyone suggest a gauge that will not freeze? It is exposed.

I am having what seems to be a well pressure problem. It is ONLY evident when the lawn sprinklers are on, so far. When any zone is watering, the pressure starts out good, then gradually drops to a trickle. This will occur even when no other water is running. The pressure switch cuts on and...

A neighbor is selling RO systems. He offered to measure my mineral content. I currently have a RaynePure under sink system that purifies Rayne conditioned well water. The RO water measured 240PPM. The water straight out of the conditioner is 1200. The water straight out of the well is 900...

Gentlemen, today I installed a new Fluidmaster 402LG fill valve with the leak guard. I am unable to get the leakguard to work properly. When I simulate a flapper leak, the float does not stay up. It "seems" the plastic chain floating is enough to hold the "leak guard" device up and away from...

Sooo, what is the correct, step-by-step procedure to fill and/or adjust air pressure in a bladder pressure tank. I have a challenger 85 gal. I would like to set my switch at 40/70. Assuming the pump is still powered off, do I then drain the water from the tank and adjust the air pressure...

Gentlemen, just finished replacing my pressure gauge. It was zero'd on 40 psi. Now I THINK it is back to normal. Was a little concerned about my operating pressures though. 50/80 psi. Had a new diaphram tank installed last July for a rust leak. He installed a 85 gallon Challenger and set...
