So this situation remains. I can tweak the operating pressure for the pump but it’s just changing the timing. Sooner or later the pump is going to run for no obvious reason.
Meanwhile the overflow from the geyser drips constantly. It overflows into a gutter, and any time of day I can put my hand below the down pipe & there’s a slow drip. Always cold, but the water travels some distance and does so slowly.
The water meter isn’t showing anything alarming. In fact water use is down this week (I read the meter weekly) at 104 liters a day.
But maybe that should be 80 or 90. But either way, as long as we come in at less than 200 a day we are under the City’s free allocation of 6kl per month and so it costs me nothing. So how much should I spend?
Pump is set to supply at 3.8. Looks like municipal pressure is about 4.2.
