It sounds like, ideally, I should have my pressure tank first, then a check valve, then an air injection pump and Air/water mixing tank, followed by my back washing iron filter, followed by water softener, and finally feeding the house. The irrigation can pull water prior to the pressure tank...

I am thinking more and more, that the micronizer back flow is the issue. Especially since I changed micronizers and may have affected flow. Anyone else out there buy an air injection pump? I did not see prices on those links.

What is the trade off if any? I don't have a problem with switching if there is no good reason not to. Especially if it improved my flow through rates both ways. What is the cost of the compressor, fitting, and any other related materials, on average?

What is the potential solution? I need very good flow to operate my very large irrigation system, so I can't have it after the micronizer and filter equipment, since my flow is too weak after traveling through all this equipment.

The micronizer is after the hose bib. Seems like way more pressure outside the house at the hose bib vs. the faucets and showers inside.

The outside hose bibs and irrigation is NOT on the iron and hardness filters. The air injector is passive, it just pulls in air as it goes by, I was told it is a hydro charger, and I already had the brass one that presumably came with the system swapped out to a newer plastic style one, since...

The air injection and mixing tank are plumbed directly before the pressure tank, and the filter media setup is after the pressure tank. Finally the softener is after the iron filter media. Is the blockage busting loose every time, and that is why pressure will increase drastically? Why would...

I am trying to troubleshoot an issue I have been having. My water pressure is significantly variable, and it has gotten to the point that it won't run my irrigation without me tricking it. This is something that was not present when I first purchased my house a few years back, but seems to...

Just on a municipal water supply. Never had it happen anywhere else in the house or outside the house, just this one spot.

I moved into a house built in 1997 and one of the annoying things was a hose bib off my garage that would sometimes turn on when the water turned on, and sometimes you would have to wait a few seconds to a few minutes for the water to flow. This and a little drip annoyed my, so I ripped out...
