Was just hoping he had separate couplings for either the 80 or 120 as I think they are better than the belled ends.

So, for the next time, would you ask for schedule 80 instead because of the larger I.D. or better to go with stronger schedule 120? Thanks guys. I really appreciate your help with all of this. I am very confident I made the right decision NOT to buy the VFD system. Now, I just want to make sure I know exactly what else to get the next time.
I will test my water next week, after the chlorine from the install dissipates. I still need to add a sediment filter at the very least. I also need to replace the tank tee. The gauge is not working right. Thanks again.

I would ask to reuse what you have. They were concerned about the possible pressures the pipe would see. The pump can give 272 psi max, but that would be in deadhead conditions.
I would consider recirculating the chlorinated water via a filter-- even the wye filter, turning the well sanitizing into a sanitizing of more.
Then once done sanitizing, run water off to the ditch to clear chlorine.

ok, to clarify, next time, stick with the 120?
I don't think I can really do anything about the chlorine at this point. We are on day 3 of what they say is pretty much done at day 7. They wanted me to go light on water use for 7 days and then I can go back to running the irrigation and laundry. I don't think I am going to be able to sort out the filter situation before then.
My plan was to test or have the water tested in a week to see what my actual water quality is and what I need. According to kinetico, my system has not been serviced in several years and they recommend replacing. They will do a full water test for free. I am sure they are hoping to sell me a new system. But, I am not a fan of then marrying a service company.
