Can you use this out side on a sprinkler well pump?

The PFXT5 is not designed to be used on a sprinkler well pump.

can this be install with the 3/4 fitting facing down

The 3/4" fitting on PFXT5 can be installed facing down. Please refer to figure 2 on page 1 of the installation guide for further detail and proper installation of this product.

Can this be used for a heating boiler unit? currently i have a extrol 2 gal tank, precharge pressure 12 p.s.i.g. which came with williamson boiler.

I’m not familiar with the heating boiler but if it’s for a hot water heating system that does not exceed the temperature of a hot water tank then this would work. It comes prechargedt 40 psig.. Call the Mfg. to be sure.

Solid buy and fast delivery!

The 10 year old PROFLO PFXT5 2 Gallon unit on my water heater finally died. Bought an exact replacement because it lasted so long. Be sure to check your water pressure and charge the new expansion tank to match the pressure. Works perfectly and arrived quickly.

Doesn't do what it's supposed to do.

This tank has not performed up to its purported standards. I have a 20 gallon water heater and I can't seem to set my shower water temperature since I got this. In fact, I'm alternately scalded and frozen with great extremes of temperature. I do not recommend it at all.

Exactly what it says it is.

Same stats as what it replaced. Charged to 40psi on shipment.
