    Help installing chlorine system

    Thank you for the reply reach and yes it didn’t make sense why he would have it set up that way I would use the carbon to remove residual I am going to have the injector tied into the pressure tank wiring so when the pressure tank calls for water the outlet will power up for the injector

    Help with Katalox light and sulfur

    just did a backwash the bed expansion was about 4 inches. I also just lowered my pressure tank back down to 40/60 today from 50/70 so the microionizer would draw in more air cause it seems to stop sucking in air at around 55 psi. not sure if that would decrease the bed expansion

    Help with Katalox light and sulfur

    yes H2S my whole house smells like rotten eggs. what would be a good way of determining my GPM wait for my next backwash or could I go to my nearest faucet and see how long it will take to fill up a 5 gal bucket and should I use both hot and cold water or just cold? thank you
