What are you going to do??? Say, "install this system and I will teach you how"??? .
man I am not that old to know.....10 years is a long time.
I just have to ask.......
What is your cars/trucks like??? Role up windows, AM radio, 8 track???
My point, the same statement can be made for cars. It just depends what your taste is. Hey, it is all good!!!!
Less expensive I will give you!!!! Is water where one wants to cut costs?? What other function of a home is used more consistently?? Just another veiw.....
Sorry didn't mean to open a can of worms here. Just looking for opinions from unbiased folks because I haven't seen to many comparisons.
Travis, I agree with everything you said. I suppose you are talking about the Aqua Genie 80? I can't find that Franklin is selling the Aqua Genie 400 anymore, is this correct? I heard Franklin was going to start putting Aqua Genie 80 valves on all their jet pumps. Have you heard anything about this?
The one I am using is the Aqua 80, And they still make the 80. No It's not a valve, but it does keep my pressure at 55psi no matter what I am doing.(up to about 12 to 13 gpm)
I have it set up to pull off a main line. When the pressure drops in the main below 50 psi ,my pump comes on and keeps the pressure up. For the way my water system is setup it works great for me.
I am looking into Franklins jet pumps, to see if they are going to start that.
For certain applications, it would be a good idea.
Travis
Thanks Travis, that is what I thought. Your system stays at 55 PSI all the time because that is all that jet pump can build. .
Then when you are using a small amount of water like 1 GPM, you should have 75 PSI in the house as well.You should actually have higher pressure in the house than the off setting of the pressure switch, when using very small flow like 1 or 2 GPM. If you go from 5 GPM to nothing quickly, you won’t see anymore pressure than the off setting of the switch. At really low flow you see max pump pressure in the house, right?
Is this a well or are you boosting city pressure?
This is awkward, but...
