Very good of you to post this. It basically shows everything you could ever want to see or know about a tank install. I appreciate it.

Very well done. This is probably the most intelligently designed system that I have seen on You Tube. The only thing I would add is a shield at the very top of the sight tube and also have some split poly pipe around the straight length of sight tube to prohibit algae growth. Turn the 'split' to the back when not in use. You only need a small split opening and have a small brightly coloured plastic floater (ball) in the sight tube for quick ID.

Thanks for posting this video. Im on a 5 acre farm in Moab Utah and Im getting ready to install a 5000 gal tank to supplement my irrigation system and you have given me some great ideas about the install. In my case I will be using a booster pump off the tank for the sprinkler system, but found your video very helpful, thanks again.

Kudos for the video content! Excuse me for butting in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you considered - Proutklarton Protecting Aqua Plan (should be on google have a look)? It is a great exclusive guide for getting prepared for a mega drought minus the normal expense. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my good mate called Gray after a lifetime of fighting got great success with it.

Definitely a nice set up the only thing that concerns me is you using brass fittings if this is potable drinking water. The reason BRASS is not used for fittings for drinking water is it can lead to high levels of the LEAD which does not leave your body, and just builds up overtime. Really nice set up though and only thing I would change is change those brass fittings to plastic or stainless steel.

Most impressive. Well thought out, well executed, and you described it well. The system looks nicely done, and the labels are super handy/professional-grade. Please forgive me if I missed it, but where does the water then come out when this tank is used to supply water? I saw a Tee between the tube from the ground (the inlet) and the tank with the "reserve" valving/tubing, I assume that's where the water will come out and feed to the lower-elevation tank you mentioned having. Is that correct? Again, very nicely done all the way around. I wish I did projects that were this nice.

The pipe from the well to the water tank is bi-directional. The water comes up when being pumped and hits a check valve at the bottom which then forces the water to go up in through the top of the tank. Then when water is coming out of the tank the check valve opens and allows the water the pass through and out.

You can install foam insulation. It does not get that cold here for us.

Looks great Sir.... Just got our well going this past weekend and we’re looking to add a BIG tank like yours into the mix. What is the price range for a 5k gal. tank like yours? Thanks for the video.

Hi, first off Great video and great work full of details to share, thank you much for a job well done and sharing, I will be doing exactly what you did for irrigation in my little property. I was wondering what mechanical float valve you used and how does the observation mirror for water level works, not sure I understand that part. Also should there be a check valve on minute 3:07 between union on left and capped TEE on right to prevent water going back to pump or water source? Any info would help. Thanks again,
@eric91780
@eric91780 4 года назад
I only have one 2" pipe for the water to get pumped in to and let out of the tank. The check valve is to force the water that is being pumped into the tank to only be able to enter at the top of the tank. This tank has a wireless control system that tells the well pump to turn off when its full.

Eric Rice thanks for the quick reply so I guess no need for a back flow preventer for water that may go back where it came from (I.e. source / well)

Where did you. get your schedule 80 from and is that 3 inch? How far did you put the strut in the ground? Thanks
@eric91780
@eric91780 2 года назад
I got the schedule 80 PVC from a local plumbing supply. You won't be able to find this at home Depot or Lowe's. The pipes are 2 inch. I drove the strut approximately 24 in into the ground with a post driver

Are you using an UV WATER STERILIZER for your water storage tank?
@eric91780
@eric91780 4 года назад
No uv on this system. Most systems I have worked on have no uv protection.

So is the water supposed to be used through that T that's on the pump side of the fill pipe? Does that mean the pump will activate whenever there's a call for water? I don't understand where the water exits from.
@eric91780
@eric91780 3 года назад
The water flows in and out from that pipe. The system operates wireless from a sensor in the tank. When the water levels drops to a set level then the well pump turns on and fills the tank.
@wthomas7955
@wthomas7955 3 года назад
@@eric91780 So when there is a call for water and it is being drawn down in the tank and the pump kicks in doesn't that mean that the water is being fed by the pump? If that's the case, why the need for a tank? It seems like you might as well be pulling water right out of the well, or spring, or wherever it comes from. Is the refresh rate too low or something like that?
