Hi we have a tender with a builder and he has on it a water tank with a Vada pump, are these brands any good?
Cheers

Well worth having a look at. The pressure tank is set at 20 psi which should draw down slightly more than 6 litres. If you have 6/3 flush cisterns, it should do two 1/2 flushes before the pump starts. If it doesn't quite manage to do two 1/2 flushes without starting, you can simply lower the pressure slightly. Another alternative is to fit another pressure tank in tandem to increase the draw down. I paid $190 for a 60 litre Pressure Wave tank two years ago but that was a good price...the next best price was $210-220. It has made a huge difference because it is used to supplement an existing pressure tank. I am not sure what the current prices are. They have given this pump the best chance of having a long life but fitting the filter and pressure tank. Numerous short start/stops on a strangled pump accelerate pump wear but a pump will operate at maximum efficiency when recharging a pressure tank. Another cause of premature pump wear is when the suction line is fitted to an elbow that is fitted directly to the pump. This is very commonly done. A straight section of suction hose that respects at least 8 diameters should only be connected to the pump. I mentioned earlier that having the tank's pump draw valve fitted at the very bottom of the tank is another very common mistake...but great if you want to draw the worst quality water in the tank from the sediment layer. I am astounded that so many tanks are plumbed like the one below. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ 3in1 Supadiverta. Rainwater Harvesting Best Practice using syphonic drainage.
