One field line is still a bit sluggish, the triple split line. But the other 2 are working strong.
Had to do an emergency stress test today. I've been conserving in hopes of relieving pressure on the field. Fat chance! Flash flooding in the area this week. Basement pumps(3) running non-stop. Mega-Pooh grandson stopped up the house lines.
Cleared the house from the tank side and got a flood of junk out.
Today I hit it with Washing machine, 2 toilets and a tub 1/2 full of water 3 times.
Slow running, then a rush of water then sputter/rush/sputter rush.
Kept an eye on the Tank and D-Box flow and gave it an hour before repeating the process.
I am amazed that the field could handle that much water and the D-Box settle down in only a few minutes.(10-15)
Estimating a hard hit of over 300 gallons in under 4 hours.
I feel with water conservation the system just may survive.
