water pump help (fresh water)

LOL no expert , just dumb old guy ........... LOL

You now know more about your water system than you ever wanted to know:)

Also you get to be the expert next time someone posts a water system problem.

thanks

Sounds like your recirc valve used to set pressure is too far open. Not sure what your pump has, but mine has a set screw to set shutoff head and a set screw to set system pressure.

operator error ! got water !! i had one valve backwards ... thank you all .. steve

really plugged now since i tried to clear them ............

no luck again . lines must be pluged . thanks all ... steve

path1 ... thank you also .......... steve

great help . thank you ... steve

If he can shoot water across the street there is adequate flow from the tank to the pump.

If I were going to try air pressure at about 40 psi max, l would apply the pressure to a faucet with the pump disconnected and try to clear it back to the pump rather than driving it further into the system.

I must admit it siounds like a problem I had where a filter disintegrated and blocked up all my inline filters and screens. I even had to replace the T valve under the sink that enables the spray hose. Symptoms are very much the same.
