Hi, I just found this board! Seems like a great site - nice job!
I believe we're in need of a new well tank. Uneven water pressure that even slows to a trickle at its worst. I think the current tank (Berkeley steel) may be the original which would make it about 18 years old.
We have 2 quotes from 2 different people.
1. 50 gal. Flex-Lite fiberglass for $1200 installed.
2. 44 gal Well-X-Trol steel for $1077 installed OR 52 gal for $1222 installed.
I'm looking for help on which is better? Steel or fiberglass? Both gave us different info - one said steel was better and the other said fiberglass is. The steel guy said steel would last twice as long. Our current one is steel and I think is 18 years old. The tank will be kept indoors in the basement. I don't care about weight - I won't be the one lugging it in and installing it!
Are those good brands?
Any other questions I should ask these guys?
BTW, how do those prices sound? We're in Massachusetts.
Thanks!
