I have a pressure tank in my garage which is, of course, connected to a tee with the gauge and switch located very close to it. I would like to leave the gauge & switch where they are but extend the 1" line going to the tank about 70 feet. This would allow me to place the tank under my house in an area where the "crawl" is about 9 feet high.
Is there any reason not to have the pressure tank so far from the switch?
I would also like to insulate the tank so it will not sweat during our hot, very humid summers. What would be the best material for this? I do not want to harbor mold so I would like to keep air from getting between the insulation and the tank.
Many thanks for any help.
