Turned off pump because of pressure, do I need to replace filter reset tank

What is the filter reset tank that you are referring to? I recently changed out my tank at home. Thanks

The contactor should turn off the pump once you hit ~60psi. If it keeps running the pressure sensor/switch is broke. If it keeps switching on and off the pressure builds too fast because the tank bladder is gone. If you press the valve at the top and water comes out the bladder is gone - replace tank.

on the filter there is a screw its called the vacuum release valve loosen it till water starts flowing out and then tighten that well release the air out of the filter tank. if you received a book with your pump and filter look in it and it is number 36. did you full the tank with half of sand then add water and the rest of the sand that has to be also. hope this helped you..

If you replacing an existing tank then nothing. You will need the fittings to attach it which you can get at the local hardware. If it is a new installation and you don't already have one, you will need a pressure switch as well. Very easy installation as a replacement. A little more complicated as a new install.

A pressure tank is not required but it will help the pump not kick on and off as often. I used a red lion 33.

My old tank was also an air over water type and I got tired of having to recharge it whenever power went out and the tank emptied. Assuming that your water line is the same size (which it likely is), it should directly replace your old tank with absolutely no changes to your system.

Sure you can set your filter pump independent of salt system. Your salt water system should will turn off if it senses your pump is not running. Often I don't user automatic timers on mine. I just turn on both at same time and the salt water keeps it's setting

I do not think so. I know when I turn it back on the pump needs to be restarted.

There is a repair kit they sell on Amazon. Not hard to do, if you pull the pump take the switch cover off and check to see if water got in there.You can plug the pump it and activate the switch manually to see if it is working if not buy the replacement switch. I would buy another pump and see if I could repair the old one to keep as a back up.

Does the Aquatec ERP-1000 Permeate Pump require a new 4 port shut-off valve other than the one supplied with my Watts 5 stage RO filter?

Your pump and the rest of the filter system needs a good cleaning. Take everything apart and clean it and it will work again. You can find a cleaning kit of brushes the right size for all the openings here on Amazon. Also, you need to be replacing the charcoal filters as needed.

I would try to disasemble the cover and impeller and reasemble make sure all parts are on correctly and make sure to prime.it correctly,DO NOT plug in the filter until all air is out of the system. Good luck!! Hope this helps!!

Yes. Best to disconnect from power to prevent hitting on/off button.expect/prepare for slight leakage where tank meets pump assembly.

No, this pump will keep pumping until it burns up. Or gets the power shut off. You'll have to have some sensor in the tank to shut it off

I do not know. My daughter set up my filter. I can tell you that after one summer, the vacuum system is not working. Contact the pump dealer to ask your questions. That is what my daughter did. I'm not happy with the system right now.

Reprime your pump , check the filterto see if it has any obstructionin ,or you may have a bad pump losing poweror vacuum.

The switch comes precalibrated for most tanks. the very first thing that you should do BEFORE replacing the switch (unless you are replacing it due to the contacts being worn out) is to COMPLETELY empty the water out of the tank, then make sure that the air in the tank (bladder, there should be an air valve like on a bicycle tire on top) is correct, if not inflate it to the specifications fro the tank, there should be a label with the air pressure settings , usually about 28 PSI or so. make sure the power is OFF, check it with a voltmeter to be sure! replace the switch. Once this is done, you can fill up the tank again and see where it cuts off and adjust if you want the preasure higher or lower. then open a water valve and see where it cuts off and adjust so that the switch cuts off at your desire setting, if the pump starts to "flutter" on and off real fast, the pressure in the tank is not correct or the low pressure is to close to the cut-off setting, lower or raise the small screw accordingly. this is what the instructions say for the bolt settings if you need to adjust it : "Turn the nut on the small bolt down (clockwise) for a higher cut-out pressure. Do the opposite for a lower maximum water pressure setting. Remember that you're not directly setting this pressure; rather, you're establishing how high you want the cut-out pressure to be above the cut-in pressure." hope this helps. and definitely test as indicated in the first answer! as this cause grief for me several times during the summer as ants...yes ants looked for cooler shelter and started to "burn up" on the contact, using a nail filler i was able to repair it for several years until there was no contact left, spraying some WD-40 below the housing helps as ants will not go onto it and it lasts longer than ant spray. : )

In my opinion you need a pressure filter. I used the 26579 for a while in addition to the pressure filter but found it clogged up to frequently.
