Hey guys. havent started yet but hwre is the plan, everything going to be new inside except for existing iron filter and water softener. I'm going to a home run pex system from the old trunk and branch copper. as for additions I am going to add a micro z Erie sediment filter 2.0, I have two 19" rusco spindowns, one is sediment trapper and other is full spindown. Can't remember size of SS mesh on them. Was planning on adding a few pressure indicators in desired spots.
I have a new csv pside kick, manifolds aren't ordered yet just deciding on size and port numbers. will be copper and and am using full flow ball valves for shut offs.
things should look like this when done. pressure system, micro z sediment filter, iron filter, water softener then off to hot water tank then proceed to manifolds, from there to usage.
So what do you think? I'm a rural home, drilled well 130ft deep, pump at 100ft. reason for upgrade? Looking for constant pressure, looking forward to a toilet flush not dropping the pressure in the shower. little better water filtration too with the micro z Erie.
let me know what you think....please.
one question I do have is regarding power outages? I realize why I'm going to the pside kick csv, queston I have is, it would be nice to have a little more tank storage so every time we flush a toilet the pump won't come when the generator is running. normal utility I'm fine with the 4 gallon tank, it's just when I'm on gas generator......don't want pump load steady. would a larger auxiliary pressure tank be the answer or go to a bigger tank on the CSV? or do nothin?
