Mixing Tank - Where to buy?

I currently have a mixing tank that I use to inject Sulfuric Acid to lower the output pH. I would like a larger tank so I do not have to refill so often. Any resources for these tanks?

By default it is set to spray with tablespoons per gallon on the metering dial, it should also come with a teaspoon per gallon orifice in the top of the mixing head.

As 1 tablespoon = 0.5oz, set it to 2 for 1 oz per gallon.
Perfect... Thanks!

Re: Irrigation Controller- Rain Detector?

Understood. I have decided not to use the wired rain-sensor. Everything is working as I want... So far. Something I did... On the initial set-up of the zones, the controller calculated based on no rain; From experience a few of the zones were off on their times. So not to over-ride the auto-calculat...

Irrigation Controller- Rain Detector?

I need a controller where different zones be controlled by the Rain-detector. Here's my situation... I want the lawn to be controlled by the rain-sensor. But, I have flower-boxes that do not get rain, and I still want these to activate not dependent on the rain-sensor. Help?

I think I'd call the company because that's off by a factor of 1,000. That's...severe. Anything over 0.3 is completely unacceptable.

Sent email... Facebook message. Thinking I will not hear back until Monday!

Have you tried searching google? Amazon? You’ll probably have better luck finding a product on a site selling stuff.

Internet: It's weird... Although I find hoses that appear might work... I can't determine the throughput volume. The search continues!

Irrigation Mixing-tank / Down-low pH

I get the short-term and long-term thing. I believe I can "control" the pH level by adjusting the output of my irrigation/mixing-tank/injector. Then there is the "what can I do now" to lower the pH? This is information I did not provide before... But it seems you-all may have additional valuable sug...
