Hi y’all! I will try to not write a book/will keep this as simple as possible.
We had our pressure tank replaced in October. Ever since we’ve had moderate air in the pipes when our water softener regenerates or softens. I tried removing the check valve at the T of the pressure tank and the pressure stays consistent when no water is used - google told me this would eliminate likelihood of a leak in the buried line.
We have tried temporarily bypassing the water softener but got constant/extreme air when doing so. We had our air softener replaced today and still getting air when it regenerates, so the plumber bypassed the new softener so it didn’t get damaged by the air and now we have excessive constant air in pipes again. He thinks maybe a bad check valve at the pump.
We are so ready to put this issue to rest. Any one have any thoughts on this?
