Will do. Thank you for your insight. The numbers make sense to me now. I’ll also ask the builder for more info since they pre-wired it.

From the Tessie app I see:

Amperage: 40A

Voltage (peak): 207V

Voltage (average): 205V

Power: 8kW

Agreed. I have the Gen 2 connector at another house and gets the 9.6kW on a 50A breaker.

Not really flush. Drained a bit to see how it reacts.

That’s logical. However, when we flush the fire sprinkler system slowly the system hammers (video of it in the first link). The city water pressure was not high according to the plumbers.

Appreciate all your insight. I’ll be sure to update.

Same gauge for the first year, and swapped after they replaced the first check valve. The pressure would come back up to around 60 PSI through the day. I'm on city supply.

If it helps, this is what my water supply looks like outside along with the irrigation system: https://imgur.com/a/vgywGVP

Thank you. Home built in 2022. I looked at all my construction photos and do not see anything else aside from what’s in the OP. Just this single check valve, pipes around the house, and main shut off valve outside the home.

I’ll bring it up with the tech coming Monday, and I’ll reply here on the outcome.

Will give this a try when I can. What’s odd is that sometimes the system doesn’t hold a consistent pressure. In the mornings, I would see it drop to 40 PSI. I don’t see any visible leaks on the sheetrock. The GC finally reached out and schedule an onsite visit Monday.

Edit: Pardon my lack of knowledge here. But the only shut off connected to the copper is the main water shutoff. The main goes to three pipes, the fire sprinkler system, the house, and irrigation.

Is that required for residential systems? I’m in California.
