WellMate “Universal” Tanks

WellMate water pressure tanks are essential components in residential and commercial water systems, providing stable and reliable water pressure. They are particularly significant in systems where the water source is a well, as they help to maintain a consistent flow of water at a desired pressure.

History and Evolution WellMate water pressure tanks have evolved significantly since their inception. Initially, water pressure tanks were simple vessels that relied on air pressure to push water through the system. With advancements in technology, WellMate has developed more sophisticated and efficient models. These modern tanks are often made from durable materials like fiberglass, which offer longevity and resistance to corrosion compared to traditional steel tanks.

Function and Mechanism The primary function of a WellMate water pressure tank is to store water under pressure. When a faucet or appliance is turned on, water is pushed out of the tank by air pressure, maintaining a consistent flow and pressure until the pump replenishes the water. This mechanism helps in reducing the wear and tear on the pump, as it doesn’t have to turn on every time water is needed.

Types and Selection WellMate offers a variety of water pressure tanks to suit different needs. The selection depends on factors like the size of the household, water usage, and the capacity of the well pump. Key types include:

  1. Diaphragm Tanks: These have a diaphragm inside that separates the water and air, preventing waterlogging and maintaining efficiency.

  2. Bladder Tanks: Similar to diaphragm tanks but use a bladder instead of a diaphragm. They are known for their efficiency and ease of maintenance.

  3. Composite Tanks: Made from non-corrosive materials and designed for longevity. They are ideal for harsh environmental conditions.

Installation and Maintenance Proper installation and maintenance are crucial for the longevity of WellMate water pressure tanks. It's recommended to have professional installation to ensure that the tank is properly integrated into the existing water system. Regular maintenance, including checking the air pressure and inspecting for leaks or damage, is essential for optimal performance.

Benefits WellMate water pressure tanks offer several benefits:

  • Consistent Water Pressure: They ensure a steady flow of water at a consistent pressure.

  • Pump Protection: By reducing the frequency of pump activation, they extend the life of the pump.

  • Energy Efficiency: Less frequent pump activation also means reduced energy consumption.

  • Space Efficiency: Modern WellMate tanks are designed to be compact and can fit in smaller spaces.

Environmental Considerations WellMate is committed to sustainability, with many of their products being environmentally friendly. The use of non-corrosive materials like fiberglass reduces the environmental impact and enhances the tank's lifespan.

Conclusion WellMate water pressure tanks are an essential part of modern water systems, especially for homes and businesses that rely on well water. Their evolution from simple steel tanks to sophisticated composite models reflects the advancements in technology and a commitment to efficiency and sustainability. Proper selection, installation, and maintenance are key to ensuring that these tanks provide a reliable and consistent water supply.
