In preparation for an irrigation system, I’m looking for the best method to tap the well line. My well report says it’s was tested at 15 gpm.
Currently there is a 1” poly pipe from the well which enters the pressure tank tee assembly, from there a 3/4” pex line goes into a tee (3/4” softener and 1/2” to outside taps).
The question I have is do I bypass the pressure tank and install a 1” poly tee and eventually into a 1” pex to outside.
Or swap the 3/4” reducer from the pressure tank tee assembly for a 1” fitting to accommodate the 1” pex to outside, and a reducer tee for the 3/4” feed to softener/taps.
Before the pipe goes outside I will be converting to 1” copper in order to connect to back flow preventer on outside wall.
