We have very rusty water in my area (about 4ppm). Will the CSV1 work ok in this water condition?
Thank you.

Rust will make a CSV1 start leaking. You would be better off using a CSV1Z. They can handle a lot of stuff.

I am planning on replacing a burst bladder tank with a smaller (19 gallon) and a CSV1Z. I currently have a 1/2 hp red jacket pump set at 80 ft. Do I need any other components?
Thanks

As long as the pump has a check valve, and the pressure tank has a pressure switch, you are good to go. Let us know what you think about it.
Thanks

How about a flow inducing sleeve?
I just saw on the install instruction that for a submersible pump a flow induction sleeve is recommended.
I have a 1/2 hp red jacket pump.
thanks

A flow inducer is not that important on a 1/2 HP pump. However, I always like to have one if it will fit.
