Hi everyone,
I'm hoping some one out there has been in my boat and
can help me with this problem.
I built a calcium reactor out of pvc following the
methods I found on several DYI web sites. It works
great but my only problem is that when the pressure
gets too great from the CO2 in the reactor it pushes
back the incoming water from my supply line and pushes
all of the water out of the reactor. I am running a
mag 7 on the supply line and a Quite One pump for a
recirculating
pump ( The Quite One ends up running dry not a good
situation).
Every day I have to open a ball valve I have on the
top of the reactor to release the extra co2 pressure
and then the reactor fills up with water once again
till the next day it starts all over!
I searched on the DYI sites and could not find
anything that references anything about this problem.
I figure that I need something like a pressure relief
valve to let the excess co2 to escape by itself but
I'm not aware of anything like that made for this.
Does anyone know how to correct this problem and /or
know of a pressure relief valve for calcium reactors
(safe for saltwater).
Thanks!!
Stu
