I wanted to report back for the sake of anyone else perusing this thread.

The installer sent a someone out. He confirmed the leak, dripping at the pitless was fairly obviously with a bright...

Really appreciate the feedback.

Got them coming back to look it. Meanwhile I talked to the installer on the phone - he immediately thought of the Pit-less and told me to go listen to the well. As...

LLigetfa -- Good point on leaks. It occurred to me that maybe they didn't seat the pitless right or something, but I suppose the system could be leaking anywhere along the tube or even at the new...

Background: Just put in a new well pump (Goulds 10GS10, 220 foot well, ~120 ft static head).

After things settled out I have now noticed a slow pressure leak -- tank pressure drops down over an...

Thanks. Looks like the new centropro motor SFA is down at 9.1 in the manual, I wonder if they short you a few % of baseline HP and then make it up in service factor... I hear you, thanks for the...

Just put in a new well pump (Goulds 10GS10). I know it is slightly oversized (220 foot well, ~100+ ft static head) and I am already planning on adding CSV, etc. to modulate flow. But in the...

Thanks for post. I finally ID'd three local guys that deal with them, but only one was comfortable talking about using them in a residential application rather than just in irrigation systems. I'm...

I've been checking with contractors on pumps. Any opinions about best brands to pair with a CSV? As I said, I'm pulling out a Goulds which seemed fine to me. But several contractors are saying...

Light bulb is on now, thanks for the link. So the system does incorporate the pressure tank initially, but makes it irrelevant when the water keeps running. If the flow does exceeds the pump...

Thanks, yeah, I've been investigating that. I followed your various threads here, and looked elsewhere to follow up. I get the concept, and I'm already mostly sold.

I understand the CSV wouldn't...

Hey, thanks for the quick response. Quick and to the point.

I went back with some better electronics tools and I guess I've confirmed what you are saying. First I double checked that there is...

I have a well experiencing some pressure issues under load. Once triggered by the pressure switch, the pump seems to run about 20 seconds or so and then shuts off of its own accord. Checked...
