5 Important Things About Pressure Tanks and Their Uses

What is a Pressure Tank?

Pressure tanks are vital components in water distribution systems. Pentair's Wellmate Pressure Tank Classic series is a prime example, especially in domestic, commercial, and agricultural applications. This tank acts as a pressurized water reservoir, which helps in regulating water flow and ensuring stable water availability.

How Does a Pressure Tank Work?

In a water pump system, the pressure tank is in charge of storing water in a pressurized state. When water is pumped into the tank, the pressure inside increases. A membrane or diaphragm inside the tank will separate the water and air, maintaining this pressure. This feature is important for reducing pump workload, saving energy, and extending pump life.

Main Functions of Pressure Tank

• Stabilize Water Pressure

  • Pressure tanks keep the water pressure in the system constant.

  • This avoids problems like "water hammer" or sudden changes in water pressure that can damage the piping system.

  • With stable water pressure, using appliances such as showers and faucets becomes more convenient and efficient.

• Pump Protection

  • Reduces the frequency with which water pumps turn on and off, thereby reducing the risk of wear and tear.

  • This is important for extending pump life and reducing the need for maintenance and component replacement.

• Energy Saving

  • By reducing pump workload, pressure tanks help save energy.

  • These efficiencies have a direct impact on reducing electricity costs for the home or business owner.

• Continuity of Water Supply

  • The pressure tank provides a reserve of water that can be accessed during power outages or if the pump experiences problems.

  • This is especially important in areas that experience frequent power outages or in places that require a continuous supply of water.

• Water Use Efficiency

  • By providing a larger volume of water to draw from, pressure tanks improve water use efficiency.

  • This means the system does not need to pump water as frequently, reducing the risk of system fatigue.
