Well-X-Trol Tank

The Amtrol Well-X-Trol pressure tank, model WX-251, is a 62-gallon steel well tank measuring 22" x 47", part of the most trusted line of pre-pressurized well tanks in the industry. Designed to deliver steady water pressure while protecting your pump, the Well-X-Trol name is synonymous with quality and longevity among well-system professionals who have relied on it for generations.

Proven Pressure-Tank Performance

Well-X-Trol tanks use a captive-air diaphragm design that stores a reservoir of water under pressure, reducing how often the pump must cycle on and off. The benefits are immediate and lasting: less pump wear, lower energy consumption, and consistent pressure at every fixture in the home. Excessive pump cycling, known as short cycling, is one of the leading causes of premature pump failure, so the WX-251's generous drawdown directly protects your pump investment while improving everyday comfort.

The diaphragm keeps the pressurized air cleanly separated from the stored water, preventing the waterlogging problems that plague older plain-steel tanks and preserving the tank's full drawdown over years of service. Rather than gradually losing capacity as air and water mix, a diaphragm tank maintains its rated performance cycle after cycle. This is the engineering that has made Well-X-Trol the benchmark against which other pressure tanks are measured.

• 62-gallon capacity in a 22" x 47" upright steel tank
• Captive-air diaphragm design for reliable, sustained drawdown
• Reduces pump cycling to extend pump life and save energy
• Delivers smooth, consistent household water pressure
• Industry-leading Amtrol Well-X-Trol build quality
• Sized for homes with substantial water demand

The substantial 62-gallon capacity provides generous drawdown for homes with real water demand, smoothing out the peaks that occur when several fixtures or appliances draw at once. That larger reservoir means the pump runs less frequently and pressure stays comfortable even during busy mornings and evenings. To realize the full benefit, set the air pre-charge to the value recommended for your pump's cut-in pressure before commissioning the tank.

Whether you are replacing a tired pressure tank or specifying premium equipment for a new well installation, the Amtrol Well-X-Trol WX-251 represents a sound, long-term investment. Its proven diaphragm technology and ample 62-gallon capacity combine to keep your well system running efficiently and your household pressure dependable for years to come.
