[QUOTE="the doctor, post: 295115, member: 75"] Cheers guys.... So I can move the pressure vessel up to the house then.... When I put my thumb over the pipe, it tripped the vessel switch. Adjustment down there does not seem to do much as the pressure is 50 lbs with the pipe open at the house. That must be the weight of the water down the hill then.. As an aside, the well pump is marked at 0.37kw and appears to be fit for the job... It fills a 10 litre bucket in 45 seconds. The only worrying thing is that I checked the running current and it comes in at 2.8 amps. I don't know the power factor but am sure some of the amps is 'slop' I said to my sis we will play it by ear and if the pump croaks we will get something a bit more powerful.... [/QUOTE]
