    I'm really glad you went to the Doctor and got tuned up, but I think you should wear filter masks in dusty situations. Great vid of course. Those paddle boards look like fun. 🙂👍👍👍🏨

    Ya, breathing is good. Take good care, Nick, both of you. Grieving for your fellow TH-camr, Zac; tragic death in Portugal 2 weeks ago. A reminder how much all your homesteading videos touch our lives and you become favored virtual friends. Didn’t like the spiders, but I’m old.

    Love the paddle boards, how great is that!!! The bladder in your expansion tank , looks to have a slow leak. In the states, the bladder isn't repairable. Chuck the old tank and screw a new one in place. Pumping some air in will help in the short term but eventually it will need replaced. If it gets really bad, water will begin to migrate above the bladder. Game over at that point. Thanks for all the great work your doing on the channel. Good luck with the bees!

    Hi Nick.
    If you tap the vessel on the water pump and it sounds solid you need to change the diaphragm in side if it’s hollow there maybe a leak in the valve.

    about the pump it only should work if you open a faucet.
    check for leaks in pipes. dont add much air in pressure chamber usually they have a small tag with the pressure range. if membrane is leaking you can find a replacement in Gonçalagro zona industrial do fundão for example

    My pump with a little pressure tank had a similar problem. I had a pro here doing something else and he found a leak in the rubber bladder inside the tank. He ordered a replacement for me and it has worked fine since.

    @aidenjohns8248 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Nic could be the diaphram leaking! the pressure vessels normally just screw in! normal thread righty tighty lefty loosy!.. could get a bigger vessel to reduce cycling of pump!..the diaphragm could have a pinhole.. hope this helps the diaphragm can be replaced om some of them, which could do and keep as a spare..

  • @melissachilders8386
    @melissachilders8386 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Nick I seen they prescribed you Trelegy..that is an EXCELLENT medication. I use it. It must be took daily for it to work. It is more of a longterm maintenance med...to control and prevent future flareups. The steroids are for more immediate inflammation and works wonders..and gives you a boost of energy to boot..lol. Hope you feel better soon. I know all to well about lung issues. I don't know how the medical system is there but If you continue to have problems see if your doctor will take a sputum sample to be sent off and tested. Hope you get some relief...wishing you both a splendid week/wkd. Loved the video.

  • @mikemagee9156
    @mikemagee9156 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    On top of the expansion vessel is the valve, as youbrightly pointed out.
    If if slightly press the valve, like you're letting the air out, does water come out?
    If yes, the diaphragm is broke, split... and you'll have to change the whole pressure vessel.

  • @davidstoddard9160
    @davidstoddard9160 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    You have to replace the expansion tank because the diaphram can not be replaced that i know of . and having a larger tank would be very beneficial too , so it can work more effecient on the amount of time between pump needing to start up again. Pressure usually is set so pumps starts at 30 pps on the lower end to cut off at 55 to 60 pps

    A farmer had 5 female pigs. Times were hard, so he decided to take them to the county fair and sell
    them.
    At the fair, he met another farmer who owned five male pigs.
    After talking a bit, they decided to mate the pigs and split everything 50/50.
    The farmers lived sixty miles apart, so they agreed to drive thirty miles each and find a field in which to let the pigs mate.
    The first morning, the farmer with the female pigs got up at 5 A.M., loaded the pigs into the family station wagon, (which was the only vehicle he had) and drove the thirty miles.
    While the pigs were mating, he asked the other farmer, "How will I know if they are pregnant?"
    The other farmer replied, "If they're lying in the grass tomorrow morning, They're pregnant. If they're in the mud, they're not."
    The next morning the pigs were rolling in the mud, so he hosed them off, loaded them into the family station wagon again and proceeded to try again.
    This continued each morning for more than a week and both farmers were worn out.
    The next morning he was too tired to get out of bed.
    He called to his wife, "Honey, please look outside and tell me whether the pigs are in the mud or in the grass."
    "Neither," yelled his wife, "they're in the station wagon and one of them is honking the horn." this is funny have sent it to Cindy too
