Flash flood – Update

I think that the flood might have been from draining the tanks.  I am not sure because I thought I got most of the standing water up two days ago.  Also, water could have leaked out of the holding tank after I cracked off the 1" plug.  Oh well, I will know in a couple of days.

Flash flood

I had a flash flood today.  It was about a 1/4" deep.  It had to happen last night.  The floor was quasi dry yesterday.  I came back over about an hour or two later and the floor was drying.  I will have to see what happens tomorrow.

Flojet problems

Today, I opened up 5 flojet pumps.  I was thinking that maybe they would be easy to notice what the problem was.  The majority of the problems were with the check valve assembly.  I tried to piece together a couple and got three that probably will not work.  But I did try.  Greg, did say to just buy new ones.  But maybe if I replace them with new valve assembly kits the success would be greater?  I have not check them yet though.  I should be more positive.

Water pressure problem – Fix

I had to use a strap wrench to get the filter tank off.  I think it was clogged up just a little.  I wonder if the filter was white when it was new?  I ran the water for about a hour and everything worked okay.  Also, nothing broke and it was an easy fix.  Which is always good.
