Hi folks!
I have a question about sizing for a pressure tank.
My current set up is a well x trol 203 and a sta-rite 3/4 hp 10gpm
pump with a 175 ft well.
I checked the tank this am, after noticing the pump cycling a lot and come
to find i have a ruptured bladder.
Since I need to replace the tank anyway, I am considering a bigger tank
7 people ( 2 adult, 5 kids )
The pressures were 30/50 but it was too low, so i boosted to 40/60 and
increased the bladder pressure to 38. That was about 6 months ago, and things performed better.
Pros / Cons appreciated.
Thanks !
Jeff
