Question about the Fleck 2510. Is it possible that the valve is bad and my water is bypassing the media? Although I've rebuilt a Fleck 2510 before and I have the parts on hand if needed, I do not know the logic of the flow paths inside of the valve. Thanks again

I have really nasty water with lots of clearwater iron. Once it oxidizes in a glass or bucket its very ugly. 3.4 mg/l from an old test I found. I do filter for iron using a 10x54 Fleck 2510 filter with greensand and pot perm, but that is after the PH neutralizer. Can I measure the backwash rate...

I have a PH Neutralizer in my water treatment system and am going to clean and refill it. There is still a fair bit of "media" remaining but it is not raising the PH. When I say a fair bit of media, its almost at the height of my last fill. It is a 10x54 tank with a Fleck 2510 Set to backwash...

Wayne, Thanks for your reply. I had to read it more than once to digest it :) 1. Basement. Very good point here. My basement is about 75% finished space with an in-law apt. As it is a walkout there is quite a bit of window space in the living area. R-19 in the floor between up and down. It is...

I just read up on the Blower Door test. It seems that the purpose is to determine air leakage. How does that relate to the Heat Load calculation? Does it effectively create a multiplier to the Heat Load Calc? i.e. - more leakage adds to the heat load? Thanks

Hello Everyone! First time posting. I would like to install a DIY mini-split in my house and am looking for some input on equipment selection. So far it appears that the MrCool DIY line of equipment is the most user-friendly package. I want to use a two-zone system with the ceiling cassettes...

Thanks again Ditttohead. Guess I'm all set. Off to read about Soda Ash injection!!

Hello Ditttohead, Thanks for your input. OK, that makes sense. (i.e.- water that has been resting in the media vs water that is passing at top velocity. ) And I would agree with you about the equipment. It does not pay in the long run to buy inferior equipment. Follow on questions: 1.) What...

Hello Everyone, I'm looking for some help with my PH Neutralizer which has been in operation for quite some time and does a moderate job at raising PH, but I never really liked the way it operates. It is a 10 x 54 tank and has a Fleck valve on top. In the past I underestimated the value of...
