    Smart Toilet bi-stable solenoid valve acting strange -what could be the reason and the fix?

    I think I have fixed this. I still have to test and adjust the pressure to see if I can go higher. And to see if this pressure is enough to properly flush the toilet This is what the gauge is indicating right now Here is the list of components used: Pressure reducing valve...

    Smart Toilet bi-stable solenoid valve acting strange -what could be the reason and the fix?

    As far as I understand all the threads for the fittings that I need (including the pressure reducing valve) will be straight not tapered, correct ? If I attached the reducing valve directly to the sharkbite shutoff valve that is an 1/2" straight thread which means that the reducing valve with...

    Smart Toilet bi-stable solenoid valve acting strange -what could be the reason and the fix?

    I would like to try using one of these https://www.amazon.ca/Pressure-Reducing-Adjustable-Control-Regulator/dp/B07TCGX75Y/ installed just downstream of the below valve https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07J6GM88G BTW the valve seems to be 1/2" not 3/4" as depicted in the above manufacturer...

    Smart Toilet bi-stable solenoid valve acting strange -what could be the reason and the fix?

    Good catch....I guess that is conservative or based on other components of the system. The valve is rated for more as the pictures are showing

    Smart Toilet bi-stable solenoid valve acting strange -what could be the reason and the fix?

    No aerators were removed lately. @Reach4 yes I am going to havr to measure that. I was saying that if you have a tap running and you open another one the amoint of water that flows to the tap fals to half. The tap that is closer to the source will obviously take more water while the one...

    Smart Toilet bi-stable solenoid valve acting strange -what could be the reason and the fix?

    Thanks for the feedabck guys @Reach4 ...no tap in the waterhouse is siffering from low pressire when it is open by itself. A crushed pipe would be a constant bottleneck no matter how many taps are open.I need a way to measure the pressure at one of the sink ends.... if it still 90psi thr thr...

    Smart Toilet bi-stable solenoid valve acting strange -what could be the reason and the fix?

    I am totally confused ...everybody is telling me that 90PSI is high pressure but as mentioned above I see a lower volume coming out of each tap when two taps are open anywhere in the house. here is my plumbing where could the bottleneck be ?

    Smart Toilet bi-stable solenoid valve acting strange -what could be the reason and the fix?

    The piping is 1/2 in the entire house I can keep two taps open but the water pressure drops to half of what it was. The toilet was bougth like three years ago and installed like two years ago. It was not that expensive compared with th prieces I am hearing today. There is no way I can return it now.

    Smart Toilet bi-stable solenoid valve acting strange -what could be the reason and the fix?

    I am thinking maybe a water pressure reducing valve could be installed between that existing valve and the toilet, hidden behind it as there is some room there PS: I would not install one on the main supply pipe as I already do not have enough pressure to keep two taps open on the same or on...

    B-Hyve irrigation controller -connecting one more Orbit valve to the pump terminals to act as a main valve-does this work?

    After reading again yiur post I see the problem. Yes allways on 24V when everything ekse is off means something is wrong there

    B-Hyve irrigation controller -connecting one more Orbit valve to the pump terminals to act as a main valve-does this work?

    if you expected 12v there the probably what you have ther is +12V -12V this might allow you to use the ground and command two devices at the same time

    B-Hyve irrigation controller -connecting one more Orbit valve to the pump terminals to act as a main valve-does this work?

    I have a B-Hyve Orbit controller and a manifold with three valves I want to add an Orbit valve, like the ones installed on the manifold, but this will be just downstream the tap, acting as a main valve, as in the picture below The plan is to connect that valve to the pump terminals on the...

    Above ground outdoor water feed permanently on. Heavy duty garden hose or copper pipe?

    Yes I am planning to use the compressor for the rest of the system before removing that hose I would like to have the copper pipe or the hose as close to the surface as possible as it might puncture and flood the house somehow, it will be way to close to the wall
