Pressure drop?

Closed

I thought I saw the valve was supposed to be open. Doing a bit of research tells me it should be closed, which shoots my PSI up to ~70. So I am assuming that was my problem? I knew it would be something stupid simple.

Thanks for bearing with me through this.

SUCCESS!

You're welcome - glad you figured it out. Just noticed that the flush valve position wasn't visible in any of your pics. Typically the pressure is lower than 20 with the flush valve open...

Yeah, I noticed in the pictures it was flipped over and out of sight as well. That makes perfect sense. How often should I flush the system?

Thanks again.

In a perfect world, you'd flush it for a minute everytime you turned it off. That's not practical for a lot of people, so once a week is better than once a month.
