I have read that there should be nothing installed between the pump and the pressure tank. I am getting ready to start the procedure of replacing my hot water heater and pressure tank and wondered if I should reconfigure the connections - see photo - well water comes in from left.
System:
Pro-Flo PF32 Pressure Tank (bladder) by Amtrol
Myers S2N52 1/2 HP Rustler submersible pump in 4" casing, 33 ft. deep
Pressure switch set at 40/60
Bradford/White 40 gal hot water tank
Plenty of water available, however high mineral content.
Note: The only relief valve is on the hot water tank and there is no drain valve near the pressure tank.
This all started because the bladder in the original Flexcon Well-Lite pressure tank broke after 16 years.
Would a CSV be of any benefit in a system such as this?
Any advice would be appreciated.
