poly water storage tanks

Answers

I want to put a poly water storage tank 65 feet above my house. How do I calculate the psi at the house?

I'm looking for a simple formula to use in figuring this so I can adjust if need be.


For each foot of elevation the pressure will increase .433 psi

Therefore: pressure = 0.433 X height in feet

Is that simple enough?

Leak in PEX amp; fittings - Airstream Forums

We camping for a week, everything went fine. While I was dumping the tanks getting ready to go home, I noticed a drip by the left back wheel well. Ran around and look in the closet and the carpet was soaked and I could see where water had leaked I assume from the fittings. I cut the water off and waited to get home to investigate. When I pulled back to carpet, the floor was soaked and soft all the way back under the bed on the street side. It must have been leaking the whole week but it probably was not the first time this had happened. I hooked back up to my water and no leak, so I assume the water pressure at the campground was to high. I guess I was mistaken when I thought the city water inlet was also a pressure regulator. Anyway, I need to fix the leaky pipes and have a question as to why the pressure relief valve would be there. Is that needed? The T that has the plug can be done away...
