What Is a Well Pressure Tank?
Also known as a well storage tank, a well pressure tank is a major component of your home’s well system. This tank uses compressed air to bring pressurized water from your well pump into your home.
The tank stores pressured water to be propelled by air through your pipes, and when it recognizes that the water pressure is low, it alerts your pressure switch to turn your water pump back on. This prevents your well pump from turning on and off every time you use your home’s water and helps to extend the life of your well pump.
Even with a functioning well pressure tank, you may still not have the water pressure you desire. In this case, you may consider the addition of a booster pump or a constant pressure system to work seamlessly with your existing well system.
