Valve Tech / Re: Pressure between the pump and CSV

Thanks, Cary. The well guys put this in because that's all they had on their truck, saying it would be no issue. I suspected it wasn't right. They replaced a 3/4hp, 10gpm. I need to have this corrected to a 3/4 or even 1/2hp with this well setup, correct?

Valve Tech / Pressure between the pump and CSV

« on: December 06, 2024, 09:32:01 AM »

I've read a number of posts on the line pressure created by the CSV, no need to go into any details. My question is: With a 3/4hp pump the max pressure created in the line by the CSV will be X. Given an identical install, and the pump is now 1 hp, will the max pressure created by the CSV remain the same or will it increase? The 1 hp pump is this one: Franklin 1hp 10gpm 230v 3W 4" SS 4400 TRI Series FPS, static water is at 40', pump at 60'.
