Question:

in the instructions it says to check the tank pressure frequently , ok like does that me monthly ,quarterly ? on my pressure tank on our well that is a yearly thing but the tank is 80 gal . This tank is less than a quart so I know it will have to be more often. thanks

Sorry for the delay, I wasn't getting any word back from Seaflo until today. Their rep recommends checking your Accumulator Tank # SE38FR quarterly. Seaflo's Accumulator tanks have a small air bag inside of them that can lose pressure over time causing the pump to have work harder.

There is an air inlet (pictured below) that you can hook a standard bike air pump onto to increase the pressure inside of the airbag.
