Water Tank Installation

Pressure Tank

  

A well’s pressure tank maintains the water pressure in your house and protects the life of your well’s pump. It stores water and has compressed air up top and provides water under pressure when the pump is not running.  Every time you use your washing machine, toilet, faucet or bathtub, water is needed from the well so the pressure tank holds a certain quantity of water in it to draw upon to be used before it sends a signal to the well pump to turn on. This extends the time between the pump turning on and off so if that on and off cycle is fast, every time you use water, the pump will turn on and when you are done using water, it turns off. The pressure tank, in effect, helps prolong the life of your pump.

  

How do I know when my tank is going bad?

1. Pressure Switch and Well Pump Constantly Switch on And Off

Leaks in your home can cause the water well pump to continuously run. A running toilet in your house could cause the issue.

2. Well is Pumping Sand or Sediment In

If you start to suddenly see sand that your water well pumps out, this could be a sign that your well is filling with sand and silt. Your well pump is typically 10-20 feet above the bottom of the well so you definitely should not be seeing these elements pump their way into your water supply. Sand can wear out the pump values and do other damage to your pressure tank and other parts. 

3. Low Water Pressure
