Dump valve, Ok, I read about dump valve leak

Ok, I read about dump valve leak, but where is the one way valve? In the plastic line from pressure switch to copper tube, in the copper tube, or in the top of tank where copper tube exits tank? Mine was blowing relief valve so I changed the pressure switch, but the dump valve was also leaking and changing pressure switch did not solve that problem , like you said it wouldn't.

Thanks, Joe

Hi Joe. By "dump valve" I'm understanding you mean unloader valve, yes?

The one-way valve you refer to is what I would call the check valve, also yes?

If you click Valves from the nav bar, you'll see a link to Check Valves, and that page provides all the info you should need.

Cheers,

Bill
