Sometimes one tank just isn’t enough… especially for the impatient ones. My RO system is in a utility room behind the kitchen sink and that’s also where the 3.5-gallon tank is so the 1/4-inch line to the faucet is about 15-feet long. That means I have about 1.5-gallons in the tank and it flows very slowly out of the faucet so I’m one of those impatient people that prefers not to wait a long time for a cup of water to be filled and it’s too slow to really use it for much more than drinking. Adding another tank under the sink and/or increasing the water line to 3/8-inch were the choices but putting my smaller tank under the sink and this one in the utility room solved that slow running issue to the point where it’s almost twice as fast so no need to spend more on tubing and fittings to move up a size in the water line. I can now get enough water quickly enough to also use it in the coffee pot, my homemade wine and some cooking… though not all at the same time. with just this tank it took 14-seconds to fill a 16-ounce mug and after turning on my old smaller tank with it the time was cut in half to 7-seconds. The new tank is working fine but it would be nice if they added some packing material in the box because that’s the same box used for shipping and the tank is right up tight on the sides so it’s ripe for a dent or two. I looked at some other tanks but just getting the tank valve is worth about 6-bucks because many do not come with it. I filled it twice and drained it twice before I filled it again for use. My air compressor is in the garage so I’m glad I checked the pressure first before I let it fill for the first time because you can’t get an accurate reading on the bladder pressure when it’s full of water. This one, as was the one before it, did not have any air pressure in the tank so I have some doubts about that “Pre-pressurized between 7-10 psi” statement. I don’t mind putting some air in it but it begs the question of where did it go if both tanks were pressurized and should I be expecting it to bleed off in the near future? I knocked off two stars for the lack of pressure but otherwise I haven’t had any other issues yet. If you don’t have a means of checking the pressure and adding air to the tank you may find that after installing it you won’t have any water to the faucet. I just added a new pressure tank to my well in our cabin and the pressure was correct so I’m disappointed I have received two of this without air in the bladder. The RO system I installed a few months ago also came with the correct pressure. If you notice a decrease in the water flow at your faucet it may not be due to a filter(s) clogging but rather a drop in tank pressure and checking it first costs you nothing but time.
The first tank… I tried to save 10-bucks and went used in like-new condition and it was returned the day after it was received. There were some major dings; it didn’t have any air pressure; it wouldn’t hold air long when it was added and the tank valve was missing the inner locking ring so it couldn’t be used. All these issues could have been present before it was shipped or several could have happened while in transit to me. There was a note on the tank valve bag that said it was received in that condition so the next one was brand new, is now in service and is the one reviewed.
