I am curious to know why the instructions for my bladder tank says "cut-in pressure must be the same as factory set pressure of 38PSI".
I have done a little searching and seen most online recomendations state that bladder pressure (with the tank empty) is to be 2psi less than the pump cut in pressure. Anyway, I can understand that the bladder pressure needs to be the same or less than the pump cut in pressure for the pump to to turn on, but why so close? Why can't I bump my cut-in pressure up to 45psi without fooling around with the tank?
Thanks in advance.
