Greetings,
I am a new homeowner and have never had to deal with this problem. I have a 42 gallon
Galvanized Bladderless Pressure Tank with a submersible pump.
I replaced my Pressure switch 40/60 and Pressure gauge on the AVC. When I turn the power back on air comes out the bottom of the AVC until the tank gets about 2/3 full. the pump keeps running but the pressure never goes above 45psi so the pump constantly runs because it never reaches 60psi.
Is there a way to bypass the AVC so that i can empty the tank and manually start with 38psi?
Or, is this not a good idea?
