Bladder Pressure Tank Replacement in Concord

Bladder tanks hold water inside a flexible butyl bag surrounded by pressurized air. When the bag ruptures, water fills the whole tank, there is no air cushion and the pump short cycles. A quick test is pressing the air valve on top, since water spitting out means the bladder has failed. We replace the tank, set the new pre-charge and confirm the pump runs a full cycle. Most bladder tank swaps take about two to three hours.

Emergency Pressure Tank Replacement in Concord, NH

A ruptured tank can leave you with no water or a pump that never shuts off, which can burn up the motor fast. If the pump is running nonstop, turn off its breaker and call (844) 442-1569. We carry common tank sizes and fittings for same-day replacement. Once water is restored, we test the pump's amp draw to make sure it was not damaged. Quick action can save you the cost of a new pump.

Pressure Tank Sizing and Upsizing in Concord

Many older systems have a tank that is too small for the pump, so the motor starts every time someone washes their hands. Tank size is based on drawdown, which is the usable water stored between cut-out and cut-in pressure. For example, a 10 gallon per minute pump usually needs at least 10 gallons of drawdown for a one minute run time. That often means an 80 to 119 gallon tank rather than the 20 gallon unit that came with the home. Upsizing is one of the most effective ways to extend pump life.

Well-Rite pressure tanks are a popular choice known for their reliability and durable construction, featuring heavy-duty steel shells and high-quality butyl diaphragms. At FVR Plumbing, we regularly install Well-Rite tanks as part of our well pressure tank replacement services in Concord. These tanks are designed to provide consistent water pressure and reduce pump cycling, extending the life of your well pump. We ensure proper sizing and installation of Well-Rite tanks, adhering to manufacturer specifications for optimal performance and warranty validity.

Galvanized Steel Pressure Tank Upgrades in Concord

Many older homes in Concord still have traditional galvanized steel pressure tanks, which can corrode over time and lose their air charge. We offer professional upgrades from these older tanks to more modern and durable bladder-style tanks. This not only improves water pressure stability but also lengthens the life of your well pump by reducing short-cycling.

Pressure Switch Replacement in Concord, NH

The pressure switch tells the pump when to start and stop, typically at 30/50 or 40/60 psi. Pitted contacts, insect nests and a clogged sensing nipple are frequent causes of failure in well houses. We replace worn switches with Square D or similar models and clean or replace the nipple below it. A low-pressure cutoff switch can also be added to stop the pump if the well runs dry. We set the switch to match your new tank's pre-charge.
