The Global Water Solutions PressureWave 42.3 gal Pre-Charged Vertical Pressure Well Tank is built to deliver steady water pressure while maximizing space in tight utility areas. With a rugged steel shell and a corrosion-resistant polypropylene lining, this tank combines durability with clean, dependable performance for everyday homes and small properties.
Key advantages that set PressureWave apart include factory pre-charge for quick, hassle-free setup, and a compact vertical design that minimizes floor space without sacrificing capacity. The 42.3-gallon capacity provides ample storage to smooth out peak water demands, reduce pump cycling, and extend pump life in well systems.
What makes this tank unique
-
Vertical footprint: A tall, slender form (36.5" high by 20.9" deep and wide) fits in tight closets or utility areas where a horizontal tank would be impractical.
-
Polypropylene lining: Inner lining offers corrosion resistance and a clean surface for water storage, helping to extend the life of the tank in varying water conditions.
-
Factory pre-charge: Ready to install with minimal setup, reducing initial pump cycling and stabilizing system pressure from day one.
-
Standard connections: 1-1/4" female NPT fittings ensure straightforward integration with typical well pumps, pressure switches, and plumbing runs.
-
Robust construction: Steel body paired with a durable almond finish for a professional look in service spaces.
-
Temperature tolerance: Rated for temperatures up to 194°F, making it suitable for standard domestic water applications.
-
Not UL-listed: If UL listing is a requirement for your project, verify compliance with local codes and supplier guidance.
Ideal use cases
- Residential wells needing a reliable buffer to maintain steady water pressure during showers, laundry, and peak-demand moments.
- Small to mid-size properties where floor space is at a premium and a vertical tank helps keep the mechanical area uncluttered.
- Irrigation setups that benefit from reduced pump cycling during watering cycles, helping conserve energy and extend pump life.
- DIY installations that rely on standard 1-1/4" NPT connections for compatibility with common well pumps and pressure switches.
Installation and compatibility tips
Install in a dry, accessible area with level support for the vertical tank. Ensure you have the appropriate 1-1/4" female NPT fittings and compatible pressure switch hardware. While not UL-listed, the PressureWave tank is designed to deliver dependable performance in typical domestic well systems when installed according to manufacturer guidelines and local codes.
