Heavy Duty Electronic Valve Solenoid Control56 viewsMost often you will find water tanks rigged with a toilet float type of on off valve. These cause the pump (in this case a heavy duty submerged franklin) to turn on an off frequently. This wastes electricity and keeps the water 'churning' all the time never giving any impurities time to settle to the bottom. With this type of electronic valve the desired off/on point can be adjusted by moving the middle yellow adjustment tube.dozer

Level Line55 viewsA long clear plastic tubing is used to create a level line which will be used to set the top level for the floor tiles. The tube is filled with water, on one end a line is marked at the water line. At a different area perhaps several meters away another mark is made (in is a two man process). This two independent marks will be at the same level and measurement can be made from this point downwards to determine the target level for the tiles. dozer
