    Vibration Damping Compound

    I think I will agree with MintJulep and hydtools that the best is to simply clean the gap and leave it empty. I would think tar is too rigid. Thank you all for your suggestions.

    Pressure tank installation

    Thank you all for your comments, Itsmoked aswering your question, the storage and pressure tanks are pretty much level, being the latter seated maybe 3 ft higher. Valvecrazy, the cycle stop valve sounds good to me, and for my pumping capacity (around 30 gpm) not very expensive. Altough...

    Difference between a wet-pit sump pump and a submersible sump pump

    I see, so basically in the submersible the motor/pump are together in a housing and the whole thing goes inside the sump whereas in the wet-pit type motor and pump are separated. I would assume wet-pit tend to be used for higher capacities. Thank you!

    Mechanical diaphragm pumps vs Hydraulic diaphragm pumps

    Thanks Jay, I actually meant gallons (of solution) per hour and this is pretty much a constant figure. Probably that is too much for a solenoid pump? Best Regards,
