I buy "Pronto Super Concentrate" (50% Glypohosate) at Tractor Supply for about half the price of Roundup.

I have not noticed a difference at all in how good/fast/etc. it works v.s. my previous...

I've re-thought the tank-pressure-over-50 question and I was wrong earlier because the pressure switch senses the pressure in the line OUTSIDE the tank. A bladder pressurized to 50 pounds will...

I recently replaced my well-rite tank after just three years of operation because the bladder failed. Well Rite was very good about sending me a replacement under warranty no questions...

Sounds like a plan. When you say three times do you mean spring, mid-summer and fall or three times during the spring/summer? (i.e. do you do a fall feeding?)

Thanks

Does the switch fail to spring over to the "make contact" side (meaning it is physically stuck open) or does it make contact but just doesn't allow electric to flow?

If it's physically stuck, I'd...

I drew this picture to help me understand.

Here's my theory: If you have two check valves in your system and the one down at the pump has failed, then most of the water between check valve #1 and...

I have the same situation and the showstopper for me has been that the small portable generators I've seen are not wired for 220V. My well pump is 220.

If your pressure switch is set at 40 - 60, you don't have a PRV and your pump stays on when you're watering, then that means that your pump does not produce 60PSI at the flow rate allowed by your...

Concur with all the others. I've used Roundup months after I mixed it and it still killed the weeds. Use it around my trees with no problems too. I've also alternated RoundUp and insecticide in my...

It's called constant pressure. But that's only when pump is on. With pump off, pressure will vary from 50 down to 40 psi, when pump...

I guess I need to move to where you guys are. I just got an offer from my Propane company to lock in for the coming year at $1.579 /forums/images/icons/mad.gif

I don't know about "best tank they sell" - I really think, as someone else said, that most of the bladder-type tanks from any of the major manufacturers are pretty close in quality.

It looks like...

The PRV on my SmartTank system has a bell-shaped housing circled in the attached picture.

Hmmm... That's pretty much the way...

Ouch - yes, it probably depends on your location whether the companies are willing to do a tank swap. Wise to check before going ahead with it.
