Water Pressure & Storage Tanks

Protect Your Well Pump and Ensure Reliable Water Pressure

Your home’s well system depends on more than just the pump – the pressure tank and water storage setup both play essential roles in delivering consistent, reliable water to your home.

At Kappus Well Pump & Water System Services, we specialize in the installation, replacement, and maintenance of pressure tanks and large-capacity storage tanks. A pressure tank helps regulate the pump’s run cycles and prevents it from turning on and off too frequently. Meanwhile, a water storage tank ensures you have an adequate reserve of water available, especially useful for low-yielding wells, high-demand households, or irrigation systems.

Storage tanks typically hold hundreds of gallons and are designed to ensure your home never runs out of water – even if your well can’t keep up during peak usage. Whether you’re experiencing pressure issues or looking to expand your water capacity, we’ve got you covered.

What happens when pressure tanks go bad?

Over time, the internal bladder inside your pressure tank can weaken, rupture, or lose pressure, resulting in a “waterlogged tank”. When this happens, the pump may turn on and off rapidly, sometimes hundreds of times a day. This is called “short-cycling”, and it’s one of the leading causes of premature pump failure.

Common warning signs of a failing pressure tank:

Rapid clicks from your pump turning on/off
Fluctuating water pressure
Reduced water flow or “bursts” or pressure
Visible leaks or rust near the tank base
Frequent pump failures

Pressure Tank Maintenance – Tune-Up for Your Water System

Just like your car needs regular oil changes, your pressure tank needs routine check-ups.

We recommend checking tank air pressure every 2–3 years.

A simple tune-up can prevent thousands of dollars in pump and/or property damage.
