All,
Hoping someone can help me. Just pulled my pump from my low-dose (low pressure pipe) system (very similar to aerobic, except no chlorine tank, and uses a drain field instead of sprinklers).
The person who originally installed it choked the ball valve going to the field lines to about 3/4 open. Not sure why - maybe trying to regulate flow to the field lines? Seems like this would just put unnecessary head pressure on the pump. It it a 1.5" PVC line.
Does anyone know the reason for that? Thinking about just setting it wide open when I re-install. Thanks in advance.
