CONNECTING TANK TO SYSTEM

IF REPLACING A TANK 

Remove and discard the protective cap from the pressure 
tank’s stainless steel water connection.  Connect the 
tank cross / tee fitting (3- or 5- way connector for inline 
or horizontal pressure tanks) into the pressure tank with 
adequate pipe sealant (Teflon™ Tape or pipe dope) on the 
male threads. Be cautious to not over-tighten, cross, or 
strip threads when connecting fittings.

Once the fitting is securely tightened, be sure that the 

threaded holes for your pressure switch and pressure 

gauge on the tank connection fitting are in the upward 

position. (See vertical tank examples Figures 1.1, 1.2, and 

1.3, horizontal tank example Figure 1.4 and inline tank 

example Figure 1.5).

With adequate pipe sealant, connect all of the fittings, 

valves, pressure switch, pressure gauge and water system 

pipe / connection unions to the connection fitting.

PRESSURE TANK INSTALLATION

Disconnect or shut off all electric 

power to t he water suppl y/pump 

system. Shut off the water supply 

to the system and remove all water pressure from the 

system. Failure to follow these instructions may result 

in serious injury, death and/or property damage and will 

void product warranty.

A suitable pressure relief valve, 

set at a maximum of 100 psi, must 

be installed in the system near the 

pressure tank (see Fig.1.1)

All piping and electrical components should 

be in accordance with prevailing local codes 

and standards.

Inspect the installation for water leaks 

paying close attention to the connection 

between the pressure tank and the system piping. 

The pressure tank should be installed in the incoming 

water supply line from the pump system and before any 

point of user (POU) fixtures. (see Fig. 1.1)

STARTING THE SYSTEM

Before turning on the water supply to the system, open a 
water faucet to allow air from the system piping to be purged. 
Turn on the power to the water supply and the pump should 
turn on, filling the system piping. When the water is flowing 
freely from the faucet without air, close the faucet. The pump 
will continue to run filling the pressure tank.

With all power turned off to the pump system, drain the old 
tank, close all water flow to the tank and disconnect it from 
the system. Check all fittings, valves, switches and gauges for 
proper working condition and replace as appropriate.
