Hello,
I have been looking all over the web for information of a proper installation of cistern pump with bladderless pressure tanks. I know they are old styled but most installations in this country are of that type. If possible a book I could purchase and add to my library is preferable as I forget things over time.
I am specifically looking for detailed information on maintaining the proper air/water ratio within the pressure tank and how the air volume control valve work (ie.: Brady AV-100). After looking at lots of information I have come to understand that an AVC is necessary but I like having access to information about principles of operation or books that detail reasons.
All the searches I have done bring up the "new" diaphragm systems or tanks that contain the float type AVC that releases air pressure and abducts air in through a schrader valve at the pump or a bleeder orifice at a well.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, most of the applications are for cisterns and not wells. Although it can be considered a "shallow" well.
Thank you,
