Water level is set by the rod, so a substitute of the wrong length changes how full the tank runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow Hoskins builds them\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake the cover off a HC17-16 and there is very little to it. 8 gallons of stainless, an insulated galvanized frame, and a Model AA element riding in the frame with clearance all round.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 3\/8 in. Bob valve and its 4 in. float rod sit in an insulated compartment of their own behind a lift-off cover, so a repair in January does not mean emptying the tank. The drain stopper is 1 1\/2 in..\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 28 by 17 in. and 75 lb. empty it takes up very little of a stall, and the 16 in. frame fixes the drinking height.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePutting one in\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe water line and the power both come up inside the base of a HC17-16, so one trench carries both and the stub-ups have to land inside a 28 by 17 in. footprint. Set a reinforced pad roughly 36 by 25 in. and stand it a few inches above the ground around it, which keeps muck from packing against the frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElectrically the Model AA element pulls 4.2 amps on 120 volts, so its own 15 amp circuit is enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead your water pressure at the unit rather than at the well, and read it more than once in a day. At 75 lb. empty two people can set this one, which is part of why it ships by UPS.
