I am on a well and pressure tank system. I recently installed two automatic water hydrants for my horses. The brand is called (Drinking Post ) .
The supply for these comes from the house water supply , which has the pressure tank. The connection for the hydrants was made on the supply side ( between well and tank ) of the pressure tank. Now when the animals activate the water delivery ( they push a paddle with their mouth ) it creates a pulse like motion and we hear a banging sound in the house . My question, Would some type of back flow device help this from happening? Also, would it be any different if we made the connection on the supply side of the pressure take?
FYI , obviously I'm not a plumber, just a homeowner trying to DIY.... Thanks
