Hello Everyone, Okay, I have lived at my country property for a little over five years now. I am ready to do something about the pressure system on my well. I want to upgrade to a larger pressure tank and replumb everything. The problem I am asking about a solution for is concerning a limitation on the size of pressure tank that can be used. At this time, I have a tank with an 8.5 gallon capacity and a drawdown of 4.3 gallons. This tank is located in a crawl space. The only access is through an opening between floor joists (16" on center). I assume this is why such a small tank was used. My question is: Can I use more than one tank of this size plumbed in line? Is the drawn down pressure additive? In other words if I use three tanks with a 4.3 draw down will I have a total of 12.9 with a 20/40 pressure switch? I am considering this over trying to enlarge my opening. It would be a huge task since there are gas lines etc. to move. Thanks, Tim, Ohio
