I've built my house on a lot that had an existing well and pump. Best I can tell, I think it is a 1hp gould 25gpm sub pump. The pump was installed with irrigation in mind for a nursery. Best I understand the pump is around 25 years old. According to my reading I require 100+ gallons of pressure tank for this size pump to achieve proper cycling. I'd rather not fill my well house with that much tank just to see it become unnecessary if I ever have to replace the pump and go with something smaller. So I think that a CSV would be a good solution for my situation. However, I understand the logic of using the 4.5 gallon tank with the csv but I just hate the idea of it cycling every time I flush the toilet. Could I still use a 20gal tank or so and the csv still be effective? What setup do you guys recommend with the pump that I think I have.?
thanks for the help.
