Is Your Pressure Tank Going Bad?
The pressure tank holds a reserve of pressurized water so your pump isn't kicking on every time you turn a faucet. When the bladder fails, watch for these signs.
Pump cycles every few seconds
On, off, on, off — instead of running in healthy 1–2 minute cycles.
Pressure surges then fades
Strong for a moment in the shower, then weak — the tank can't hold a reserve.
Tank sounds solid when tapped
A healthy tank sounds hollow on top, solid on bottom. All solid = waterlogged.
Visible rust or corrosion
Rust at the base or weeping around fittings means the tank itself is failing.
Pump runs more than it used to
If you can hear it kicking on constantly, the tank isn't doing its job.
Tank feels heavy and full
Lift-test fails — a working bladder tank should feel surprisingly light up top.
What Do We Do About a Failing Tank?
That rapid cycling is the #1 thing that burns well pumps out early, so a modest tank problem, ignored, quietly turns into a costly pump problem.
Diagnose the real cause
Check whether the tank only lost its air pre-charge or the bladder has actually failed.
Re-pressurize when that solves it
If the tank is still sound, we re-pressurize it cheaply instead of selling you a new one.
Replace a failed tank
A failed bladder or corroded tank needs replacement — re-charging it won't hold.
Size it correctly
Sized to your pump's flow rate and household usage so the pump cycles correctly.
Set the pre-charge right
A step less-thorough installers skip and you pay for later.
No water right now? We treat that as an emergency.

What Problems Point to the Pressure Tank?
Start with the symptom — we can usually tell you what's going on over the phone.
- 01
Why does my pump keep cycling on and off?
Usually a waterlogged tank — and it overheats the motor, so don't wait.
- 02
Why is my water pressure low?
Often a waterlogged pressure tank, a failing pump, or a partly closed valve.
- 03
Why is air sputtering from my faucets?
Air in the lines — often an early warning of a bigger pump or tank problem.
