Well and Pump Question

[Dragonwriter]

The pressure tank should be right by the pump. Some are small bladder tanks here in northern ontario( they look almost like a propane bbq tank), and some are tall green glass tanks that are old and outdated. You still pump air into them, but the water is your bladder so to speak. With these you can store alot of water and thus have water longer if the hydro goes out and you have a tap in the basement level of the house. if you have the tall green glass tank they are actually very handy in that regard.
I really don't know how many pounds of pressure you would put in though, you will have to research that

Thanks for the tip, Morel.
Clearly I have a lot to learn
