.....for domestic private water supply filtration.

Those pressure vessels look just like the ones used on commercial
water softeners - water softeners also use backwash valves so that may
be a source.

thanks for reply

I had thought of the water softener approach (honest!)
however after months of observing it seems the ones that come up on
Ebay etc are a) smaller than I'd want, b) have a 5 port valvehead as
they regenerate with salt etc (I believe I need 3 ports - for a
straight backwash unit) and c) well, they are off Ebay so who really
knows what you'd get!! :)
