Frequently Asked Questions / What's the best way to account for constant very low (.25 gph) drippers
« on: April 23, 2019, 09:35:29 AM »
Hi, I need to replace a water tank that has developed a small leak in the inlet. From what i understand i can get one of your CSV kits cheaper, and with less long term maintenance costs than replacing my current 60g tank.
My only concern is I have 3 fish tanks that each take a constant drip of 1/4g an hour. Since the CSV is only operative at flow rates over 1GPM, is this a situation where i should be buying a larger holding tank? I'm not against replacing my current tank with another 60g tank, and adding the CSV on top of that to extend the life of the system, i just want to be sure i'm getting the proper parts for my application.
