Hi LL, I cleaned the filter, it was very durty but relief valve is still leaking, can't really check the micronizer, but it is still sucking air....thanks again for your help. I might ry another prv...

How much psi should I have from well to tank, the same as my cut in and out settings?? If this helps, I have a submersible pump about 240' deep, well is about 380' from house, 1" pvc. Tank cut in at...

Actually I have about 280' of pipe (I was counting the length down well too) I will raise setting, thanks.

EDIT>>> I raised relief valve pressure to 175 and it is still leaking when pump runs....

Cut off at 60. Between the wellhead and tank there is about 280' of pvc, then a spin out filter (for air injector as part of filter system), then a check valve, then air injector then bladerless tank.

I have a watts 530c relief valve thats only one year old located at my well head. It is set at 100psi and releasing water when pump runs. Should I just adjust up to 125 and see if it stops or...

I have a water sppicket at well head, pump and tank is at the house, check valve in well at one at house. If I want to run water at well spicket I need to run at house and get pump to kick on first...

Edited till further info gathered, thanks

thanks Texas, how do I know if I need to add air to tank?

I also have this setup for iron removal with an air injector. i put a schrader valve on my air control valve. I don't have a pressure gauge next to switch, only on tank.

actually, I have a bladerless tank (yes, rare I know) But I think the cut-off might be low because the pressure gauge on tank shows it cutting off about 46psi, and the drawdown on tank (85 gal) is...

I am just wondering why it is always suggested to go in twenty lb increments, so as not to have too big of pressure difference? Also, I have a new square D pressure switch, supposedly pre-set at...

Update: I ran today for about 20 min, about 15 gpm. (I am running at spicket at wellhead.) water is still dirty/ moldy smell.

Gary: I left chlorine in well from Fri till Sun, 2 days. Casing is...

I have an old 6" drilled well on property I am trying to tie into house. It is about 400' deep with a 1 h.p. pump set at 240'. I have ran well a few times in the past six months and water has been...

it was running clear a couple of days ago,....I am just wondering if there could be another reason for the dirtyness in water today?? I shocked well a couple of days ago also.

I have a drilled well, 1hp 12 gpm pump at 240' and let it run from faucet at wellhead, trying to get clear water. It ran dry after after 20 min or so and water was still very dirty. The faucet is...

I read the sticky on this, looks like an additional check valve is recommened (other than one in well)when using air over water bladerless pressure tanks, why is this?? And also if I nned one please...

thanks gary,....... I am also wondering about getting water to the well since house is 380' away, if i install a spicket at well and turn on, it won't work because pressure switch at tank under house...

I have an old well (if records are corect: 420' deep, water at 88', pump at 240') the pump and pipe was put in new about six months ago and I am about to trench/tie in to new construction house which...

the air injector works off the pump cycle si it has o go before i believe.

I will be installing a hydro-charger before my pressure tank (bladderless) as part of my iron filter system.This is an older well that has not been run for awhile. I am afraid of clogging/damaging...

thanks valveman, however the whole reason for going with the air over water tank is the water has time to mix with air before going thru a iron filter, so your set up wouldn't work I don't think.

I am getting different opinions from people I talk with, like I need a bleeder valve in well for this set-up to work, is this not true?? thanks

Apparently an air over water tank needs to be about twice as large as a bladder tank for the same amount of drawdown, is this correct? Also, can an air over water tank be used without an air...

I have had water tested, talked with someone near me who has one, and decided to go with a chem-free filter for iron removal. Can anyone recommend a good manufacturer or what to look for in...

control box is at the well head, does this make a differnce ballvalve or anyone??
