I have a well that produces 2 gpm. Any ideas about tank size and pressure switch settings. Should the pressure switch be at a low cut in/ cut out setting.

Thanks

You also need to know what hp and gpm the pump is. Normal pressure switch settings are 30/50 or 40/60. You may or may not need a low pressure safety switch or some other way of shutting off the pump if the well goes "dry".
