What is the function of the bladder in excretory system?
The bladder's main function is to store and release urine. Nerves in the bladder tell you when it is time to urinate (empty your bladder). As the bladder first fills with urine, you may notice a feeling that you need to urinate. The sensation to urinate becomes stronger as the bladder continues to fill and reaches its limit. At that point, nerves from the bladder send a message to the brain that the bladder is full, and your urge to empty your bladder intensifies.

This is not at all a wise thing to do. It is very likely you will get a bladder infection from putting anything into the urethra that is not sterile. If you have never had a bladder infection, they are very painful! You could tear the urethral wall requiring surgical repair so you don't leak urine all the time after the tear, but sometimes even after repair, there is still leaking so you'd have to wear diapers. And those are just a small number of the concerns and reasons not to attempt this. Perhaps the prior answer above is confusing vagina and urethra...if looking for pleasure, putting things in the urethra is not the right place.

Absolutely not!!
2nd opinion: Go for it. The urine goes down the same set of pipes as the toilet into the septic tank or sewer. As long as the shower is rinsed afterward, there is no smell or no difference. Actually it can be fun to pee in the shower with your spouse!!!! You can rinse off afterward.
3rd opinion: Yes, do it. Some actually encourage peeing in the shower because flushing a toilet may take from 1 to (yikes) 7 gallons of water. Also, save the trees -- no TP usage either. Wash up after, though!!
4th opinion: Unless you have a urinary infection, human urine is 100% sterile, and it all goes down the drain with the water anyway. Some sources say peeing in the shower can even treat Athlete's foot. Pee away!
When the check valve failed to seat properly at the lower unit in our well, the reserve tank would drain down quickly and then the pump would run again and again and again, . . .
If you have a valve between the pump outlet and the tank you can turn it off to check operation of the tank. Most likely your valve has failed.
It did this very often until we had the entire mechanism in the well replaced and installed a submersible pump.
No problems since and the submersible pump is hardly audible compared to the old pump motor which was mouted near the well head in the basement.
Good luck. Bob Jarnutowski bobjarn (at) hotmail.com
Ans 2 - A deep well pump does not have a'foot valve' -they are only on a jet pump. You have NOT told us the exact problem. If the bladder tank is not holding water then you may have a faulty check valve on top of your deep pump. Splits in the pumpdrop line down the well are also common. -The bladder in the tank can also be faulty. -You must tell us ALL symptoms , not just ask about two things you've heard names of.
Best solution - call a well tech , NOT a plumber !
