WaterWorker HT-4B Water Worker Vertical Pre-Charged Well Tank, 4 Gal, 3/4 In Mnpt, 100 Psi, Steel, 4-Gallon
From the Manufacturer
The WaterWorker pre-charged tanks utilize a butyl composite diaphragm, which flexes up and down based on water level and air pressure, as the pump fills the tank with water the air above the diaphragm is compressed, increasing the pressure in the tank until the pump cut-off pressure is reached. When water is drawn from the tank, the pressure inside the tank decreases until the pressure switch starts the pump. The amount of usable water for every pump cycles is called drawdown. The greater drawn-down capacity you select, the less your pump cycles saving energy, money, and extending your pump life. Advantages over galvanized well tanks: Pre-charged tanks do not have water-logging problems like the galvanized tanks. The air and water are totally separated using a diaphragm. No external air controls needed. Pre-charged tanks have a much larger draw-down for the same physical size. Larger draw down reduces pump cycles and pump wear, i.e. at 30/50 PSIG range three times the draw-down for pre-charged tanks of the same physical size. Pre-charged Tanks completely empty during each pump cycle. Pre-charged Tanks are much smaller and easier to handle that galvanized well tanks. Pre-charged tanks with a 30/50 Pressure Switch would be one-third the size of a galvanized tank with the same drawdown. Deep Well Jet Pumps could use either a vertical tank or a horizontal tank, depending on space requirements and sizing. Submersible Pump applications would usually use vertical tanks, again based on proper sizing. Shallow Well Jet Pumps could use vertical or horizontal tanks, based on proper sizing. The rule of thumb in sizing is to count the number of fixtures in the home, i.e. sinks, showers, toilets, dishwasher, faucets, washing machines, outside faucets, etc. and multiply it by 3. Example: a house with 11 fixtures x 3 would be 33-Gallon tank. We would suggest our 44-Gallon tank, which is the next larger sized tank.

This product popped in with standard US fittings (34 pex sharkbite).It is recommended to install vertically due to bladder placement!The product was purchased precharged and needed no adjustments.This was a first time install so we also installed the gauge and pressure switch.25 minutes start to finish.Months later the product still works perfectly.Wish everything was this easy!Highly recommended.

This item is very well made and it looks like it's very easy to install. We are going to install it in our tiny home so the compact design works well in our small space.

The Waterworker 4 gal well tank is perfect to replace our previous 1 gal tank. It has stopped the continuous off an on of the smaller tank. That has saved us in electricity. I also appreciate that it is quieter. Only thing I didn't like was the bright blue color, but no problem... My husband repainted it to match our house.

I purchased one of these to put in my Hino that's converted into a motorhome.With a 45PSI pump it allows the pump to come on less often when I use the water, but when it does come on it comes on for a little longer.Maintains a bit of pressure on the water line without having to activate the pump all the time.Allows me to flush, or to fill a cup of water without having to hear the pump.

I had to replace my old RO pressure tank it was a 1.5 gal and I need a bigger tank so I got this one and it works great.My old system has a 1/4 in.inlet and this one is 3/4 in. inlet so I had to get a adapter. I got the parts from HomeDepot it cost about $9.00.This unit comes with about 40 psi in the bladder you have to lower it to about 10-15 psi to make it work for a under sink RO tank.It's now been in about 30 days and it seams to work great.
