    Well, Micronizer + CSV = Too Much Restriction

    Oh. Lol. Yeah, so a Micronizer is a device that utilizes Venturi effect to draw in air from the atmosphere to transfer into the water stream from your well pump on its way to you well tank. Its used on hydropneumatic well tanks to keep them from getting waterlogged. Theyre more reliable and...

    Valveman, only you can...HELP?

    Youre correct. I called Wellmate tech support about the micronizer and they said that the micronizer wont let my 19GPM pump push to full capacity. They said it would slow the pump down to 15GPM maximum which would allow the micronizer to inject air on pump startup before the CSV starts holding...

    Valveman, only you can...HELP?

    wye-1/8th(combination) vs. a wye + 45

    In general, is there any difference in performance between a "wye-1/8th(combination)" vs. a "wye + 45"? I would think a "wye + 45" is better since there is a longer sweep which gets the waste flowing in the right direction for a longer time helping it downhill whereas a...

    An easy question.

    hj - would a "wye-1/8th(combination)" with the "left-out-sant-tee" on top be taller, shorter or the same height overall vs. a "wye + 45" with a "left-out-sant-tee" on top? Im having clearance issues so I need something that is really compact in height. Part of the reason I dont want to use 4"...

    An easy question.

    Yall are great. I was going to use a 3x3x3x2 left side outlet sanitary tee, a street 45 and then a wye with a cleanout. Does that sound right?

    An easy question.

    Didnt get any answers on my last post so I thought I would simplify the image and query. Are 3" wyes acceptable in this situation?
