BTW, The well was drilled in '98. is 220' deep with a 30' static level and an 8 yield. It's marked on the name plate. Is that good? I calculate needing to dump 1.5 gallons of bleach in my system to shock the entire house. 280 gallons in the well, 50 gallon hot water heater, 30 gallon tank, 10...

The galvanized conduit coming out of the seal is the house supply. What does the pvc conduit go to? Is this for venting? I need to loosen the seal so I can shock the well including the casing. I want to make sure that's not a 5' long vent pipe that's going to drop in the casing when I take...

sorry... It's an iron filter that is air injected. The media is birm. fleck 5600. no upper basket. Most folks tell me to fill the media over the underbedding gravel to the two thirds full point. It doesn't matter the size of the tank - fill it 2/3rd full.

how far from the top of a tank do you fill the media up to? I saw a video where a guy said fill the media two inches from the top!!??? Seems way high... Another fella told me to fill the media up to 2/3 of the height of the tank. So what is the consensus?

thanks for the help

I have a 5600 (basic) - the one shown on top. http://www.krudico.com/pdfs/5600_Service_Manual_40106.pdf What time of night does the timer regenerate? How can I set it up to regenerate automatically every night? I reckon I need to add tabs... where can I get some? Thanks!

got it thanks. So for the record the Fleck part number for the piston is 60102-52

I cant understand the first part of your message. Too much wisky on a cold Alaska night?

no. I wanted a replacement on me.

Yeah and the green on the bottom of the piston matches the green in my existing one. theres another thread I did where you can see the base of the piston and it;s green
