Hey brother, thank you for your videos. I live in Texas and I recently installed this pump. Running into electrical issues - it seems that maybe the pump is overheating during hot days? I dont know why but it'll flip a breaker every once in a while. Have you any experience with that? Has your light bulbs prevented components from freezing during those deep freezes or did you use a heater? And finally are you going to upgrade to a bigger pump and pressure tank? I mean that drummond pump has a little tiny tank so it has to run a lot right? Appreciate your time my man.
Does water go down into the green tank or is it strictly air down there? They tell me I need to remove the pump and turn it upside down to drain the water out for winter. I'm in Northern Kentucky.
I have been using a cheap "whole house filtration" from Walmart and it is NOT working well. Wd don't have any odor, but we do get a lot of sediment. Currently, we are updating our entire home water system with new pump, pressure tank, and filtration system. I will be making an updated video in the coming weeks.
I have a 1,300 gal. storage tank to water the vegetable garden. The tank is located about 75 feet away and is 20 feet higher elevation than the Drummond pump. I connected the pump to the storage tank and the pump is always running short cycle. Do I need a check valve on the input to the pump even if my water source is higher elevation than the pump? I assumed you only need a check valve if water source was from a lower elevation like a well.
@@lucycats6282 Me too. We now have three 1,300 gal. tanks connected together into a water hose manifold (used as a 3 to 1 hose combiner instead of a hose splitter) with a single poly pipe going downhill to the water pump. It's amazing that the check valve stops the water from being pushed back up the hill and the tank pressure stays high. My next project is a wireless water level gauge.
You say there’s a problem with bladder tanks have you tried adding air to air stem valve after you prime them I know the bladder tanks I have that all that was wrong when they went dry it allows the air that holds the pressure against the water to escape from being dry

Need to insulate that box with foam insulation. During really cold weather a simple light bulb will keep it from freezing. But it must be insulated.
Thanks for sharing your video
Blessings

Did you put in a low water cutoff switch?
Can you connect 2 pumps in tandem to increase the discharge pressure?
Nice video bro! How often do you chlorine shock well? Thanks man

If you use this for your home, what filtration system are you using?

I literally am where you are except that I’ve learned the answer is absolutely!
Just installed my valve today and all my problems went away!

Negative Ghost Rider. Air should not be introduced with water in the tank.
How can you connect a tankless water with it
Huh?
Do you still use ofev🌸
Hello. I am no longer taking Ofev. My pulmonologist took me off the medication. :)
Is your illness gone? I wish healt🙏🏻🌸

They are garbage bladder bust after year or two
Thats odd. I've had mine for seven trouble free years.
