Holding tank project

I want to convert a Water Wizard Hyper-Concentrate tank into a dilution holding tank. This would give me seven chemical tanks in the same place as three now.

5 gallon chemical containers are about 15 inches tall.  This chemical container is about 19 1/2 inches tall. Sizes of the Water Wizard Hyper-Concentrate tank:

IMG_1298.JPG It is 60" long 5 feet. IMG_1300.JPG The fixed lip in the back it 9" long. IMG_1302.JPG The width on the tank is 24" long 2 feet. IMG_1305.JPG The height of the opening under the tank is 17 1/2". IMG_1306.JPG The height of the tank is 31 1/2". IMG_1312.JPG The width of the unit from the inside of the legs is 57 1/2"". 

An additional plan it to replace my other holding tank. This means that I need to remove the perviously install pvc pipes.

Coleman uses Parker 5/8" 300 psi hose to deliver water from the holding tank.

The large tank conpartment is 15 1/2" left to right and 11 1/4 top to middle and 12" high. From top to bottom is 24".

Running hose to one bay

The plan was to run hose to the far right bay. I am replacing all the old screw-on fittings with push-in fittings in the process. IMG_1243.JPG I am running five colors twice for air and chemical. The extra two hoses are for expansion later. In the process I was attaching the foam brush hose and could not get the push connector to let go of the hose so I replaced the fitting. IMG_1245.JPGIMG_1254.JPG While replacing the fitting I must have touched the fitting below it and it started to leak. Then repeat the process for the third in the chain. I decided that every fitting really needs to be replaced apparently. IMG_1247.JPG I also had problems with the foamer. When I attached the new hoses both fitting started to leak. So I replaced the fittings and everything worked. IMG_1250.JPG I ran the foam brush hose on the other side and it is not secured with a tie strap any more. IMG_1265.JPG I removed the old hose and every seems to work great. IMG_1258.JPG

Pump problem?

Today, I had a chance to look at the pump and the water supply. I disconnected the inlet side to the pump. Nothing came out. Then I took off the check valve and water then came out. I checked out the check valve and everything looked okay except some crap in it. Maybe that is what messed up the spring? Anyway I put the check valve on again and everything worked okay.

RO Water problem

I noticed that the steel beams were leaking from the right bays. I then noticed that the ro water hose was just cracked off from who knows. The interesting thing is that the connection to the check valve was 1/4 and the hose was 3/8. There was a huge bundle of hoses so I just replaced the hose with 1/4 hose.
