The CYCLE STOP VALVE models CSV125 is a patented pump control valve that automatically adjusts pump output to match variable flow requirements. Downstream of the CSV1.25, pressure remains constant as long as demand on the system is between 1 and 25 gpm for the 1” and 2-50 gpm for the 1 1/4”. As flow rates vary, the valve inside the CSV125 moves closer to or farther away from the valve seat. This enables the pressure downstream of the CSV125 to remain constant regardless of flow.

Excellent Technology
This is probably the only solution to stop pump short cycling. It also saves more money compared to traditional installations with large bladder tanks since it only requires a two gallon bladder tank. The most important consideration is determining the correct cut-out pressure. For example, if you select a 40 PSI cut-out, but your pump will only deliver a maximum pressure of 35 PSI, then the valve will not work properly. If your pump will develop a maximum pressure of 45 PSI, then a 40 PSI Cycle Stop Valve would work fine.It will extend the life of your pump as an added bonus by significantly reducing the chance of motor thermal overload.SCADAbob

This item did. Nothing to alleviate my problem
This did nothing at all. Installed exactly as instructed but pump cycled just the same. Better to have just hired a pro to fix it right off the bat.

Best shower times of my life!
CSV - Cycle stop valve. Literally stops the cycling on and off of my pump. You would need this if you want constant pressure, and if you want your pump to cycle on and off a lot lesser than normal. Installation is pretty much simple, if there are leaks just need to add more rounds of teflon tape to the threads. I had 21 rolls on each ends and not have a single drip.

Too Restrictive!
Depending on which model you get, it allows either 1 or 3 gpm to flow through it to replenish the pressure tank. But, the manufacturer states that it will open up to allow full flow, to the rated capacity of the pump, should demand exceed 1 or 3 gpm. This is impossible. There is a section of clear pipe inside with a diameter of only approximately 3/4 inch plus there is an immovable plastic restriction at one end with slots around its perimeter. The inlet and outlet of this "valve" accept 1 1/4" fittings but the flow would never be greater than what a 3/4" pipe would allow. A partially open ball valve would accomplish the same thing at a fraction of the cost.

Works great. .
Steady pressure thoughout the house and I don't need a large pressure tank.
