A plumber hooked my pressure tan yesterday. I just checked and my pressure dosn't kick off til 60. How can I adjust it down. He also ran off with my.

Your plumber probably installed a 40/60 pressure switch and it will cut off at 60 psi. there is a small adjustment screw you can dial down the pressure. If this does not work for you you may need a 30/50 switch.

Can't recall off the top of my head, but I think the instructions refer to adjusting the screw with the spring on / around it.

Cut in pressure is the longer of the two adjustments, centered on the switch. In for higher cut in, out for lower. Cut out pressure is the shorter of the two located to one side. Again in (clockwise) for higher out for lower. I suggest you check both and the air pressure in your tank with the tank drained, mine needed to be just slightly lower than switch cut in pressure. Hope this helps.

For me, the issue has been the length of the hose and the water pressure. There is plenty of flexibility for cleaning the sides, but the hose is too short to get the water going back toward the drain, so I have to bank it off the sides. We're on a well and we keep our pressure tank at about 50 psi. I have considered taking out the flow restrictor on the advice Blanco support staff, but haven't gotten around to it.

YES! We have low pressure. It is like hooking up a power washer to a garden hose. There aren't a bunch of settings, but you can adjust it to be less intense. I highly recommend this product. I have had one for over 10 years.

Mine was set to cut in at 40psi at factory and I installed a pressure valve in the pump outlet line and set it for 60psi but it can go a little higher if you think your water lines can hold the pressure.

You're lifting the handle too far. Lift it slowly to acquire the amount of pressure you desire. Also, if you have the 2 nozzle version, switch to the other setting to see which feels better to you.

Please check water pressure. We had same issue until we lowered the pressure. Best of luck

It screwed on fine for me. My problem was NO WATER PRESSURE! I think it needs to be elevated a couple feet to use properly. Lost my patience with it so I gave it to my neighbor. I told him my issues and said "good luck to you. If you can't get it functional then toss it or pass it on. I Don't recommend at all.

Call the plumber for sure. That was clumsy of him/her. Also go on line. It's there.

A big problem is that one has no idea what the temperature and pressure actually is. There is no read out of either. You have to take is on faith and that is not worth the risk. Get a GoWISE it has a real time pressure readout.

Honestly, I haven't used it yet. I'm keeping it for the purpose of an emergency fix when I need it. I would contact the company and ask them how many psi line it will support. good luck.

Weird. Is the hot water valve all the way open after installation? Do you have good pressure with cold water? If not is something under the sink pinching the hose? Never heard of anything like this. BTW I'm just a consumer not a plumber.

Hard to explain but your plumber is most likely unfamiliar with these.My advice is READ the DIRECTIONS carefully. Sorry but there is no trick just patiently read the instruction and test and learn....they can be off slightly if you don't have the patience to set it just right. He may have been in a hurry. Best of luck

Once I removed the spongy water filter from inside the fixture mine has been fine. If you did not remove that filter I would start there. Maybe you are getting build up caught in it. Mine has been working great with no drop in pressure.

We have no problem. I think that's a question for your plumber or whoever installed it. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Hello, mine is to recent to have problems. I purchased a pressure reducer from Lowes for about $10.00 just to make sure I do not blow my system. The problem that you may have is a tartar build up. Either you can remove the unit and soak it in white vinegar or depending on your interior hook up you can create a continuous loop that will go to your furthest faucet. To do that use a bucket a small pump, 12v will be fine and pour the vinegar into the bucket pump it through the system and bring it back to the bucket. This way you can check every faucets at your pleasure with out dismantling anything. I have a Diesel engine en my boat and do the same thing to "polish" carburant (just go through the filters and no vinegar of course). It may appear complex but once you acquire the equipment everything can be stored in the bucket. If it is easy to do it will be done more often. Enjoy your endeavor, Good Luck, Francis.

I was trying to figure a way to do that today. The only thing I could come up with was to possibly install a shut off valve on the T that goes to the unit. I don't know if that would affect the toilet too or not. It would be nice if it had a pressure adjuster on it. I just try to not pull the handle all the way up but it is very touchy.

Check the weight pieces on the balance hook and on the hose. Make sure all air are bleed from the hose
