I was messing around on RUclips and this video just popped up, as I did extensive research on purchasing this kit before pulling the trigger. All I can say, is that I love this kit! We have had it for close to a year now... Super easy to install, I was able to get rid of that monstrosity of an air tank, and we now have continuous stable water pressure in the house and my hot water, for some reason, is now delivered in seconds. I have none, zero complaints on this setup. And it freed up so much room in my basement. I simply mounted it directly to the pipe from the well, right at the wall, above the floor. It is very compact and takes up very little space. My photo is on the website of the install. Even the kids mentioned the almost instant hot water, and no, I did not install any type of recurculating device or return line, along with the rock solid pressure and water flow. If you are on the fence, all I can say is that this is not snake oil, this kit works, and it really makes taking a shower that much more enjoyable. No more dip in water pressure as the tank refills, and the same can be said for outdoors with the hose. Nice continuous water flow and pressure.
Sorry no. The CSV was designed to solve many of the problems associated with pumps like the MQ. I have a picture of a dumpster full of fairly recent model MQ pumps, which is where most end up within a short time. Those pumps are a prime example of planned obsolescence. Replace that MQ pump with a regular jet pump and a PK1A kit. Then you will have strong constant pressure and shouldn't have to worry about your water supply for the rest of your life.
@@michaelshin69 Yes. The PK1A comes with either a 4.5 or a 10 gallon size tank, which replaces tanks 10 times that size. But the PK1A does use at least a 4.5 gallon size standard diaphragm tank, which will deliver 1.2 gallons of water before the pump comes on. This is important for the system as many of the problems of the MQ come from only having a spoonful of water in the little built in little pressure tank.
@@michaelshin69 It sure does, I have the 4.5 gallon PK1 kit, it replaced a 50 gallon monster of a pressure tank. I now have consistent water flow and pressure throughout the house. Huge improvement over that giant pressure tank.

Will ot work with my Grundfors booster pump MQ3?

@@cyclestopvalves8380 so PK1A takes care of a need for a big pressure tank as well?
