Greetings. I follow this forum daily, finally have a question.
I’d like to bring my submersible well supply plumbing up to date.
System sets below grade in a 6x6x5 concrete well house. Well insulated and been near service free for 40 yrs. One pump replacement, one control box replacement and one rusted nipple replaced.
Presently has no check valve, gauge or over pressure relief. The item I’m unsure of is how and where to route/dump the relief pipe.
Being in a below grade structure my thought was to modify the casing cap to accept a fitting. Presently one bolt in the cap is removed and a drain back for the attached freeze proof stand up is stuck in there. Any other ideas or is there a modified cap made for this feature?
Thanks in advance.
