Hi everyone, I am about to pull the trigger on a whole house filtration and softening system for the property we are developing. We are developing the property in two phases. Phase 1 will be a 1000 ft2 guest cottage with two bathrooms for our 6 person household (2 parents and 4 kids under 6). Phase 2 around 5 years from now will be a larger 2000-2500 ft2 house (probably 4 bed 3 bath). Kids will obviously be older and using more water. We plan on using the guest cottage as an Airbnb and to host guests.
I have done a bit of research and am planning on going with following setup to accommodate BOTH phases. Does this seem about right? I do have room in the well house I built to supplement this and/or add another pressure tank(s) if we end up needing it but I’d rather get it sized for both houses from the start.

Note: I installed my submersible well pump myself so I am comfortable doing the install and upkeep work.
