Odd one indeed- Water pressure is set to ~30-60, air pressure in bladder tank when empty is ~28. I have reset this a couple times. First was a few weeks after a water softner service and I thought maybe the service person added air incorrectly. Not the case, it was back up to 55 (air pressure when pump power off, tank empty of H2O). Of course, short cycling was what I was chasing.
What would cause a bladder based tank to increase air pressure? Schrader valve seems fine, pump control working well...about a 7 yr old house. No water issues at tap, just short cycling after a few weeks/month or so...
Ideas? Thanks!!
