Booster pumps and PRV install
Hi, I have a question about installation of a booster pump to a city water supply that has 38 to 40psi. The manufacture of grundfos and davey pumps require a Pressure regulator to be installed not to excide 30 psi.Do most cities require or have any codes to support this?and inspect it? I live in a condo complex with 32 davey pumps one in each unit. All the pumps were installed about 3 years ago and we have had 14 pressure tanks burst. I found out that the never installed a pressure valve on the city water line. Can this cause the tank failures. I know that my gauge was pegged to 100 plus psi at times.
