Filling Ballasts


Pasqua

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone can answer my question about the ballasts.  Before they fill completey, it seems that they spew out for some reason.  Is this normal?

Is the water suppose to flow out of the bassasts before they care filled?

Thank you in advance.

Sometimes when the pressure builds up in the bags it will start to push water past the drain pump.  Its normal when filling the bags plump full but if it's happening when bags are still slack you might have a kink or something restricting flow.

Or you have an air  bubble above the vent outlet because the bag isn't level - so the water spurts out when the bag is under pressure but not yet full of water.
