From this setup I have evolved very slightly. Stand alone float pole w simtech float brackets makes life so nice. I have tweaked electric connections to make life more enjoyable as well. But this is a solid setup. Nice work guys.
Dude your explanation is awesome I'm hitting my pump in the morning to beat the heat ✌️
Presto like magic, thank you for the video ✌️ probably like 20 minutes 🤘🤘
Wholesale Septic is a very nice company, the one near me is like an OSSF trade-show. Nice demo but wow what a mess of dirt. My pump was full of plastic drill shavings. My pump has also once jammed b/c the installers didn't/don't comprehend head-pressure where the teeth on the motor jammed in the pump, I ended up putting larger low-angle-nozzles on my sprinklers to prevent the head-pressure from destroying my pump. Three 3-GPM sprayers are not enough for a 10-GPM pump & it's more horrific if it's just a 2 sprayer setup with a 10-gpm pump, wild that installers in my area are allowed to be so deficient.
40 mins of dom? Hell yeah 🤘
Great video, I learned a lot, paid very close attention to details I have been wanting to learn!
Thanks for the excellent video. Just what I was looking for . Take Care
Amazing video!!
Video don’t pertain to me but nice to see people sharing knowledge. God bless Texas and the USA
GRATE‼️☝️👌💪👏
i have a system with that type of pump...can you please make a video of how to clean it when it clogs up please and thanks!
Great video. Wish you guys had installed my system😢
I have the exact same pump at my house. There is a 3rd float (it is blue) and it is not connected to the pump/pole at all. It is floating around loose and triggering the alarm. Do you have any idea what this third float is for and where it should be?
What is used to seal around a 3” pvc pipe going into or out of a concrete septic tank?
Thank you for answering.
Hydraulic cement
Thank you
The company that put in my system installed for a new home, six years ago. Been pumped once. But, it's been alarm issues and crisis with the sprinklers since early on. And, 3 GFCIs. Now I know why. Every time I pass by it I cross my fingers. Sometimes I think maybe another company and a big redo. So tired of it.
Hey Dominick, I have a question for you. Can a pump seem to be ok when testing it out of the tank but not have enough pressure to feed a sand filter? Trying to figure out if my pump is bad or sand filter is getting plugged. Originally, I pulled the pump thinking it was plugged and it was. I cleaned everything out and hooked it up. It seemed to be pumping good for about 5 minutes. Then it started to slow down. The pump has probably been running 24/7 for who knows how long since it was really slow to drain. Can the pump appear ok if its just running 3ft but not strong enough to get to the filter when it's connected? Thanks for the help!
