Residential pump systems can provide your home with constant, excellent
pressure and flow of water if they are properly sized to meet your particular
water needs. Likewise, if they are also constructed of good quality materials
and installed with quality craftmanship, they should be expected to last for
25 or more years without major repairs.
What is the proper size system for you?
We recommend that each water pump system be custom-sized to meet your particular
needs. The critical components that need to be properly sized are the water
pump, the pump motor and the storage tank.
Water Pump
The size water pump that you need will depend upon how many water using fixtures
you want to run at the same time and still have good flow and pressure. If
you want to use three fixtures at the same time, your water pump will need
to be larger than if you only want to run two fixtures together.
Pump Motor
Once you know the size of the pump you need, the horsepower is determined
by how deep the pump will be set in the well. The larger the pump size and
greater the setting depth, the larger the horsepower you need.
Storage Tank
The size of the storage tank, more than any other consideration, will determine
how long your pump motor and controls last before experiencing failure. If
your storage tank is too small, your pump will start and stop too frequently,
resulting in premature failure.
Many systems are installed today for residential homes with inadequate storage
tanks because the contractor wants to reduce his cost. However, the result
is that too many homeowners experience premature failure of their systems.
