Hello, I am new to the forum. I am trying to figure out a problem that I am having. I am on a private well that is about 600 ft deep. I have been on the well for 3 years now with no problems. I recently installed an irrigation system that ties into the main water line between my house and the well. The installers used a T pex connection to tie into the line. From there they installed a booster pump for the irrigation because my well only produces about 6gpm. They used a 1.5HP pump for the booster. I have a 1HP pump in my well. I installed a sharkbite check valve in between the T Connection that the irrigation people installed and my house to stop back flow of water when the booster pump kicks on to run my irrigation. The main water line is 3/4 pex and that is the size of the check valve that I put in-line. My problem is that after I run my irrigation system overnight which also is only 5 zones and has a 40 min delay in between zones that I set to help the water level rebuild itself, the next morning when I turn on a faucet or flush a toilet, there is a brief moment when there will either be some air coming out of my faucet or there will be air resonance in my water line to my toilet and as soon as it occurs and finishes, the rest of the day I have no issues. On top of that, it does not happen on a regular basis as well, it happened a few times last week. Then went a week with nothing and now it has done it the last two mornings. I replaced my fluidmaster 400 in my one bathroom that has the noise with a new fluidmaster perfomax version and I also drained the whole system last night to try and get out any air and this morning I still had the problem. Any ideas of what I should do next? Thanks
