Hi,
I just found this forum so please forgive me if I step on any toes. Thanks.
I have an existing well, pump and pressure vessel but I'm not sure it is working properly. The pump comes on almost immediately upon opening the tap and seems to run for a long time (7-10 minutes) and continues to run as long as any significant draw is present. Pressure, during a shower for example, starts slow and then builds suddenly to an acceptable level. I'm guessing that the pressure vessel liner is breached. I'm hoping to correct this situation without breaking the bank. I've posted some pictures on my personal website at

and I was wondering i anyone would be so kind as to help me identify the pump and its capacity and possibly give me some pointers as to a suitable replacement. My home has 3 sinks, two toilets, a dishwasher and a large bathtub as well as two outside hose bibs. Thanks again for your time and effort in advance.
