How about this, what about completely sealing that space by closing up the entry way under the stairs? Nothing is really happening under there so why not just close it up permanently. Would that...

I'd love to but I have not been able to find one small enough. I need one that can be routed to a drain line and also has a pump since it would need to drain up and out. All I've been able to find...

How about a few pictures to help. First picture is the entrance through the door to the area under the stairs. You can see the small opening to the crawl space in the back. Second picture is the...

I was actually thinking the other way around...to vent INTO the crawl space the conditioned air from the interior of the house. Is this not good?

Also keeping the door open immediately helps to...

All of the items that you mentioned have already been done. It greatly reduced the water seeping in, but a very small amount still does get in and also condensation forms. I am talking about a few...

I have a small 4'x25' sealed crawl space under my front porch. All closed in with no vents, just a door to the inside that's kept closed. It's cinder block all around on a concrete slab. It's always...

Does anyone know of a timer/switch that can be set to run for a certain amount of time per hour? For example, if I want to run the fan for 5 minutes every hour or so?

Thank you

I can handle 20 gals spilled, just don't want it to continually run non-stop.

On another note, I was examining my pipes yesterday at the location that I want to install the valve. I have PE3408...

Found something from Smart Home.....otherwise have not been able to find any other solutions.

While I get the general concept, I don't understand where I would get a "relay that shuts off power to the motor" and how to connect it to the actuator?

I'm wondering if anyone makes a device to shut the power to the pump off if it senses a leak?

I found numerous devices that are installed on the actual water lines with mechanical ball valves to...

First of all, thank you very much for the very quick replies...certainly helps.

Just out of paranoia, I think that I will get the CSV1W instead. The house is old and that supply line is like 50...

The fun continues. So the plumber cancelled on Sat, but I was looking at the whole thing and another question came up.

The line that is running from the well to my tank looks like a black hard...

Sorry, but I don't get how I am supposed to steady on 62psi? So I turn the water back on and the system will pressurize again to 65psi and cut off. Then I run the water out of the hose and the...

Ok my CSV1A is coming in today and I am getting it put in this weekend, but just had a question. I understand the schematics of how to plumb it, but what is the correct process of start-up? My...

Can you elaborate on this please. What do you mean by pumping it hard for a few days? How do I do this with everything already up and running. Besides this was installed a year ago.

I don't know...

Can't say that I am really surprised. I found out a lot of things after-the-fact that the various installers did incorrectly and share valveman's assessment that most are morons and do not know what...

I am a bit afraid to ask, but what is the difference between the CSV valve and a Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV?)?

Look like the same type of device to me by regulating the outflow pressure.

So basically like this, right?

Ahhh ha! Ok got thank you!

One other question, what are some common uses for the three extra ports on the CSV1A? Seems I can use one 1/2" for a pressure gauge, but what do you do with the others?

Ehhhh don't really have space for all of that...I can either do a Lakos or back washing filter plus the softener, that's about it. Also cost-wise, I am certainly not putting in both.

Or just a...

That's it, just build to 130psi and then what happens as the pump continues to run?

Yeah I know it's hard to say without seeing the water. So what's a reasonable low maintenance solution? I just really dislike changing the cartridges.

Long story short. Well ran dry in 2010, had it drilled deeper and new pump installed. Now I think that the pump is too big and cycles too often meaning a short lifetime so I am considering adding a...
