Applications / Distribution between CSV1A and Pressure Tank - Will This Work?
« on: July 21, 2019, 12:21:08 AM »
After talking with CSV and looking at the "PK1AM Pside-Kick: Typical Applications" webpage it seems I can separate the CSV1A from the pressure tank and have distribution after the CSV1A and before the pressure tank. But I got confused when CSV said I cannot use shutoffs on distribution lines before the pressure tank unless the pump is turned off.
My setup would be: CSV1A on the well line just after it leaves the well, then the well line would Tee to a garden line with hose bibs, and to a line to a hydrant and then the house. The house line would connect to the Tank Tee/manifold, pressure tank and switch in a mechanical room, like that shown for the PK1AM, and from there supply lines would go to the kitchen and bathroom. Would this setup work?
But it seems deficient if I cannot have shutoffs on the garden and house lines before the pressure tank unless I turn off the pump. In that case it seems I would skip the shutoffs and just rely on turning off the pump. But that would mean I could not turn off the garden and house lines separately.
Attached is a drawing of my proposed setup.
