Looks to me as if there are tanks, head, valves and salt buckets. Thread is implying to shop around for the best parets, and it lso seems no one makes ALL good parts, I asked if anyone pieced the perfect (or close to) system (parts selection) together?

Anyone Frankenstein one together and have a parts list?

I will take a look into it, but yea, crazy. I know labor will jack up the price as it takes time to sweat in pipes, measure, be precise, etc, but the fixtures are on another level. Yes yes, I know were talking "quality", but, SS metal is SS metal, its graded for a reason. If a flat 6"x 30"...

I know builders dont care about prices, they just tell the client, "hey, this is what they offer, what do you want", but, these appliances are out of control. Easy $500+ for sheet of metal for a 30" linear drain? $500 plus for a few valves that cost maybe $50? Not sure what they are up to...

Something so simple has to be so difficult, I swear. Im so bent I can barley type this <rant off> So, I want to have on/off separate from (not built into the same handle, can be same body) hot/cold and then a separate 3 way 3 handle shower valve so I can adjust 3 shower heads at will. I...

I am still not sure what I am going with. One idea was to have a seperate stand by tank with a valve and 1/8p jet pump (if they make them that small, tied in with some valves, to tie into the main system and use a small generator to get through 30 gallons for a shower. Now were talking about...

Thanks for the diagram. Gonna try to get the pump in the well this weekend. Need to do a WPM test and see where I am at before I get too far in. Even in a sealed system??

The main reason for the chlorine is for rust and other solids with bacteria kill as a side bonus. I know there is some iron in the system from orange coloration on the fixtures when I moved in, so, chlorine might not be a bad thing. It didnt look horrible, but, I want to have a marble shower...

Hi all. Well, seems there is one last piece to the puzzle I need to address, for now. From what I want to do and what I will need, it seems it would be a wise choice to go from a large ( 100 gallon) pressure tank to a 50g press tank and a 50 gallon retention tank. I have the filter setup...

Whats wrong with a bird house? Automatic fried chicken dinner when you come home from work, win win!!

Well, they sure as hell are trained to take my money for inspecting!!

My grey water and black water are seperated. Grey water goes into underground sand trap with muclh beds and plants. I also I want to experiment with a vented fan drawing air from the house vent pipe through the septic system to see what kind of evaporation results I get. You would have to do...

I actually ran into a retention tank video yesterday looking for something else. Came at the same time I was browsing here, oddly enough. I came up with a manual switching setup between the 2 tanks, but, I had not thought about an auto setup. Maybe a deep cycle battery and a 12v sureflow...

Seriously, lol??? If your gonna respond, at least take the time to skim through the thread so you can leave some educated comments. The statement above doesnt tell you what I am or am not gonna do? "As long as your not dumping sewage out onto the ground, I dont think they dont care, until...

Yea, its got me thinking..... Either a 30-40 gallon holding tank (now I have to figure which kind of tank) with a backup pump, like a small jet pump my small generator can push, and, or, use one of my (I have 4 or 5) Sure-Flow pumps my little gen can push. I dont think my gen's can push a well...

I am right in the area were they have NO interest in dealing with septic. I was allowed to do my own 400amp electrical. They came out to inspect it and basicaly took a 2 second look at it and said "yup, good to go but you need at least 1 circuit with a GFI on it". They never checked if I...

Thank you kind sir!

But I still need to know what size tank I would need (assuming I am using a 60PSI starting point) to run a 15 gallon shower, before the water stops. If I have to put a tower above my roof, I might just do that, but, on ground level, what do I need, 200, 300 600 gallon tank, or?

Here is what I have and the tank plans, for now. I am also thinking of burying a propane tank next to it, so, that should take a little load off the plastic tank if I go plastic.

Wowa, easy there!! Right now I am using a compost toilet, no extra polluting going on, and, besides, taking out the neighbors makes it more quiet in the neighborhood! On a serious note, I do need to call the pumper out and get the old tank pumped out, just to see whats up. My new tank will...
