Hello!
I have a well. The well pumps to a bladder tank. This bladder tank pushes water to an aerator tank. The aerator tank has a float switch that goes out to a solenoid-controlled valve.
The tank stopped filling. I traced the problem back to the solenoid.
The solenoid that was installed was 110 vac, but all I can find are 24 volt solenoids. The valve that is being used looks like an irrigation unit. The manufacturer is Hit and the unit is 220-000.
I need to get the water back on in our house (without having to go out to manually fill the tank every so often), but ordering a replacement for this unit is pretty impossible.
Is it possible to use a 24 volt solenoid if I put a 24 volt transformer between the float switch and the solenoid?
