What is a water storage tank?

Water storage tanks are integral components of home plumbing systems, especially for those relying on private wells. These tanks serve multiple purposes, including maintaining consistent water pressure, storing water for immediate use, and extending the lifespan of other plumbing components.

Why do you need a water storage tank?

By acting as a buffer between the well pump and your home’s plumbing fixtures, storage tanks help prevent the pump from rapid cycling, which can lead to premature wear and tear. Additionally, water storage tanks offer a ready supply of water for all your household uses.

What are the different types of water storage tanks?

Each type serves a specific purpose in managing your home’s water supply. Pressure tanks are the most common type of water storage tank found in modern well systems. These tanks are typically tall, cylindrical containers made of painted steel or fiberglass. They’re installed between the well pump and the rest of the home’s plumbing system.

Can a water storage tank be installed above ground?

Water storage tanks come in various materials and can be installed either above ground or underground, depending on your needs and local regulations. Above-ground installation is often simpler and less expensive, making it easier to access the tank for maintenance. However, it requires dedicated space on your property.

Should I add a TES tank to my infrastructure?

You can also avoid costs by incorporating a TES tank into your infrastructure. For example, instead of replacing a worn-out chiller with another chiller, or adding a chiller for extra capacity, you could add a TES tank and utilize the excess nighttime cooling capacity of your central plant.
