I've been on the fence for awhile about installing a CSV in the well systems at my home & also my cottage. I like the concept but just now I happened on a forum post about high pump pressure. In that post 150psi pump pressure was called "just right" but seems really excessive to me and I'd like to know why this is a good thing.
My home system has a submersible pump with black poly pipe underground, thru the basement wall, right up to the pressure tank tee. Concern here is the poly pipe.
My cottage system has a 1/2HP Gould J5SH shallow-well pump in the basement that I doubt could muster anything near 150psi. I don't know what's underground out to the well casing but it's galv. thru the basement wall & into the pump.
