    Well Water Test Results

    I followed the sanitizing method you noted after replacing the pressure tank last month. The sample was taken after letting the water run for 5 min, was taken upstream from the new pressure tank, and there is not any galvanized pipe or such in the system.

    119 gallon Well Pressure Tank Brands?

    Interesting concept, what is the impact to the well pump running continually when the irrigation system is running? For reference there are 14 zones covering 1.5 acres of turf. Another consideration is that the house is equipped with a fire sprinkler system for both floors that is fed by a...

    Assuming will be in the market to have the water pressure tank replaced as it seems to be water logged? Long story here, so hold on! Been fighting water quality at the house we just purchased which has extremely high iron levels and even after softening there is enough iron to leave the...

    Renovating and reusing 'princess tub'
