I had a similar problem once. It turned out the insulation had rubbed off the wires where they entered the conduit from box sitting on top of well. Good drillers are not always good electricians. ...

This thread was started more than a year ago. At that time I responded that I had repaired my Waterboss, blah ...

Since then it went out again and I replaced it with a Fleck from Ohiowater.com. ...

I think I saw the same deer. Only two though. Got one picture but not as good as yours. I live off 1488, 2 miles west of Magnolia.

I think a lot depends on "where". In my area, humidity is high, and temperatures are never real cold. Termites eat any wood near ground. I would say ten years is good estimate for cedar and maybe...

I think you want a pressure switch and tank at the well. You don't want your pump to have to pump 2000 feet. A second tank at the barn and a third at the house is good. But why would you need a...

I really wanted a Troybilt when I bought last year. The one I wanted was about $1000. I wound up buying a Sears on sale for $600. It works good for me. But I only use it 2-3 times a year and keep...

Buy a box of "Iron Out". I think that's the name. Follow directions. It will dissolve any iron absorbed by resin and basically rejuvenate it. I've got instructions at home for a Water Boss. If I...

Funny.

Others here are better experts at setting tank pressure. But here's a stab at some of it. Setting your low pressure lower will result in a period when you have a painfully low pressure to the...

I had a Water Boss once. They had me clean it with something called "Iron Out" I think. It's used for, among other things, removing iron stains. It's probably the same stuff. Definitely flush it...

I'm the one that has a pressure tank after softener. It has helped tremendously. No it will not have a higher pressure than before the softener. But you must clarify this. It will not have a...

Hopefully it's not the pump. Mine when out. Driller came by, checked things with his ohmeter, and knew already what problem was. Wire going into well had rubbed up against top at junction box and...

Well, and if I didn't have a road grader I might be tempted to buy a small blade. Certainly Deere has something. If they don't, Sears does. I'd probably see if one of the neighbors has a box blade...

You didn't say what color the stains are? If they are blue then you have acidic water and copper pipes. You will have to have water tested to determine how acidic to determine what time of...

Sears has a "Water Line" you can call with very knowledgeable people at the other end. I haven't used it in a few years but here's the number: 800-426-9345. Something I did was to install a small...

Do an internet search for solar water heaters. Most or all will be for houses. But I don't know why you couldn't apply the same to a stock tank. I remember an article a while back on solar water...

Well, I'm a little confused. I would expect prices to come down if there are more cases, as people will slow down on beef purchases. I would wait before stocking up. On the other hand, if you live...

I would check this site:

I bought my softener from them. You might also check Sears but the expertise in the store is usually pretty slim. They...

Very informative article. Conclusion is that it will not hurt septic system. I still like my not adding to septic demands. And where I have it installed there's not really a drain for it anyway. ...

But you then have to consider the potassium that's added to the water. For most of us, the extra potassium would be good for you. There may be some, however, with a sensitivity.

Then there's...

No, but I couldn't see dressing up with soap all over me. But it wasn't a pretty sight. Cold kind of makes you not care though.

Mine is vertical. And now you mention it, the old switch that I have has the 1/4" pipe still attached, and it does look nasty inside.

I almost hate to suggest a new forum, but I will anyway. I'd like to see one dedicated to solar, or else solar and electric. There seem to be a lot of posts regarding these and I'd be interested.
...

"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?"

Good question and I'm not...

Once it was in the winter, cold. I went out in just a towel and shampoo. Luckily my neighbors are too far off to see much.
