    Moen Transfer valve (M-Core) retrofit

    I'm a very amateur plumber. Made a mistake in new home construction and installed Moen M-Core transfer valves 180 degrees off - basically upside down. The net is that these valves won't transfer water to the 2nd shower head on the valve. If I understand correctly, I can just swap the PEX...

    STA-Rite SNF-L experience?

    Thanks. That points out the main difference between that pump and the Goulds J15S, which has a max pressure of 80psi. Price difference: Goulds J15S $600 (max pressure 80psi @5' lift) STA-Rite SNF-L: $350 (max pressure 67 at 0' lift)

    STA-Rite SNF-L experience?

    Anyone have experience with the sta-rite SN series of cast jet pumps. I'm looking at the 1.5hp STA-Rite SNF-L: SNF-L Specs Considering this as an alternative to a Goulds J15S. It'd be setup with a CSV and a 40/60 switch, largely per recommendations in another thread. It'd be a primary...

    Primary water pump recommendation (above ground tanks + 300' line, 30' elevation)

    Understood - we've got a single bath up there at that level. Appreciate the precision and explanations.

    Primary water pump recommendation (above ground tanks + 300' line, 30' elevation)

    Thank you again. I get it. I think I'm sold on the CSV system. FYI - for others "Goulds GBK" - these are the multi-stage pumps "GB Booster Pump Series" - pumps look amazing, but seem to start over $1k. I read reviews on the 240V 1HP 33GPM Hallmark pump - Super cheap (<$150) - China. It...

    Primary water pump recommendation (above ground tanks + 300' line, 30' elevation)

    Thank you very much.. Two questions: 1) I'm aware of the (highly recommended) CSV system - I'm assuming you're recommending the PK1A. How is this different from using a large pressure tank (other than the ability to regulate constant pressure)? 2) I can use a submersible pump in the tank, but...

    Primary water pump recommendation (above ground tanks + 300' line, 30' elevation)

    Hi guys... I'm building a new home and I'm trying to finish off the primary water source. My setup is 3 x 5000 gallon water tanks (above ground, connected together). I've got a structure setup to be a "pump house" that has 30A of 240V available. I'm using one tank as primary, and feeding the...

    Another help me pick a pump

    Doing a new residence where the only water source is rainwater collection. Largely due to poor water quality (high TDS) from many of the wells in the region. Right now, I've got a 5K gallon tank (we'll be adding others that are connected) and need to choose a "whole house" water pump for it...
