Well-X-Trol Tank

Sized for larger residential and light-commercial well systems, the Amtrol Well-X-Trol WX-202 pressure tank offers a generous twenty-gallon volume in a sixteen-inch diameter by thirty-two-inch tall vertical format. Its larger drawdown means the well pump cycles far less frequently, delivering smoother household pressure while significantly extending the working life of the pump and motor. For families upgrading from an undersized tank, the difference in pressure consistency is immediately noticeable at every fixture.

How the Well-X-Trol works

Inside every Well-X-Trol tank is a heavy-duty diaphragm that separates the stored water from a sealed, pre-pressurized air cushion. As the pump fills the tank, the air charge compresses; when a fixture opens, that stored energy pushes water out under pressure without the pump needing to run for every small demand. The result is consistent pressure, fewer pump starts, and protection against the rapid short-cycling that prematurely wears out well equipment and burns through pressure switches.

• Twenty-gallon vertical pressure tank, sixteen inches in diameter by thirty-two inches tall
• Pre-pressurized diaphragm design keeps water isolated from the air charge
• Reduces pump cycling to prolong motor and pump service life
• Ideal for medium to larger homes, irrigation, and booster applications
• Trusted Amtrol Well-X-Trol engineering for long-term reliability
• Robust thirty-three-pound build suited to permanent installation

Keeping water separated from the air chamber protects the integrity of the factory pre-charge and helps maintain clean stored water over the tank's service life. For best results, the air pre-charge should be set roughly two pounds below the pump's cut-in pressure and checked periodically while the system is depressurized. At thirty-three pounds, the WX-202 is robust yet manageable for a standard well installation in a basement, utility room, or pump house. Whether you are replacing an aging tank or building a new system from scratch, this Well-X-Trol delivers the dependable pressure stability that homeowners and installers expect from one of the most recognized names in well water equipment. The twenty-gallon size strikes a practical balance for many homes, offering meaningful drawdown without the bulk of the largest models. Paired with a properly sized pump and a correctly set pressure switch, the WX-202 forms the backbone of a well system that runs quietly, efficiently, and with the kind of longevity that keeps service interruptions to a minimum.
