A properly sized and maintained pressure tank is essential to your well water system. It stores pressurized water for immediate use, reduces wear on your pump by preventing constant cycling, and ensures consistent water pressure throughout your home. Whether you need a new installation, repairs to an existing tank, or a complete system upgrade, our certified technicians handle every detail.
Pressure tanks for well water work by storing water under pressure, so your pump doesn't have to cycle on and off every time you open a faucet. When your well pump runs, it fills the tank and compresses the air inside - either through a bladder or diaphragm - building pressure between a set cut-in and cut-out range. As you use water, the compressed air pushes it through your plumbing until the pressure drops low enough to trigger the pump again. This cycle protects your pump from overworking, extends its lifespan, and delivers steady, consistent water pressure throughout your home.
They did a great job and I highly recommend them if you need something done.

From sizing and selection through installation, electrical wiring, and ongoing maintenance, we handle every aspect of your well's pressure tank system. Our licensed technicians integrate pressure tanks with your existing well pump, configure controls, and ensure optimal performance - all backed by warranty coverage you can trust.
Bladder Tank Installations We supply and install standard residential well water bladder tanks to store pressurized water for immediate use.
Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Constant Pressure Systems We configure specialized, space-saving stainless steel pressure tanks designed exclusively to pair with VFD constant-speed pump systems.
Control Box & Electrical Component Integration We install and wire vital tank infrastructure, including electrical pressure switches, control boxes, and integrated digital pump drives.
Freeze Protection Upgrades We apply specialized heat tape to vulnerable tank lines and exposed plumbing pipes to provide cold-weather freeze protection and prevent winter ruptures.
Air Charge Calibration & Maintenance We service waterlogged or short-cycling systems by measuring pre-charge pressures with calibrated gauges, restoring standard air balances, and replacing damaged internal bladders.
Common questions answered - your system specifics are best discussed in a consultation.
A failing pressure tank usually shows clear symptoms before it stops working entirely. Watch for these common warning signs:
Our technicians can diagnose the exact cause and advise whether a repair or a full replacement is the more cost-effective solution.
The main difference comes down to how each tank separates air from water and how it maintains pressure. A bladder tank uses a sealed internal rubber bladder that keeps the pressurized air completely separate from your water supply, which prevents waterlogging and delivers consistent, steady pressure. Older-style tanks without a bladder allow air and water to mix directly, which causes them to become waterlogged over time and require frequent recharging.
VFD (variable frequency drive) constant-pressure systems take a different approach altogether - they pair a small tank with a variable-speed pump that adjusts output on demand, delivering near-perfect pressure with greater energy efficiency.
Yes. Limited space is one of the most common challenges we solve. For properties with cramped utility rooms, crawl spaces, or no dedicated equipment area, we offer compact in-well stainless steel tank configurations that install directly inside the well shaft rather than taking up room indoors.
We can also recommend low-profile bladder tanks or VFD constant-pressure systems, which require a much smaller footprint than traditional tanks while still delivering full performance.
Absolutely. For large residential estates, multi-family housing, agricultural operations, and other high-demand properties, we supply and install certified American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) pressure vessels built to your specific system requirements. These heavy-duty tanks are engineered for higher pressure ratings and greater storage capacity, and we size them precisely to match your peak water demand so pressure stays consistent even during periods of heavy simultaneous use.
We stand behind every installation with warranty coverage that goes well beyond the industry standard:
We'll walk you through exactly what your specific tank and installation include before any work begins.
Yes - repairs and maintenance are a core part of what we do. Our service work includes:
Whenever possible, we'll repair and optimize your current system before recommending a full replacement.
Every pressure tank project follows a proven sequence. Here's what to expect.
We evaluate your current water usage, pump capacity, and household demand to determine the ideal tank size and type for your needs.
Based on your assessment, we recommend the best configuration - standard bladder tank, VFD constant-pressure system, or space-saving in-well option.
We prepare the installation site, run water lines, and handle any trenching or plumbing layout changes needed to integrate the new tank.
Expert mounting and secure connection to your well pump system, with proper support and positioning for optimal performance and accessibility.
Full electrical integration including pressure switches, control boxes, and digital monitoring systems - all wired to code and thoroughly tested.
We test water pressure, calibrate air charge, verify all controls, and walk you through operation and maintenance so you know your system inside and out.
Reliable service that speaks for itself.
One thunderstorm and a bad tank, and we were left without water. Moving from NY to NC we had very little experience with wells. Rowan Well Drilling to the rescue! They arrived promptly when they said they would. They answered all of our many questions thoroughly. They were very respectful of our property. Rowan Well Drilling was able to get us water again within a few hours.

Rowan Well Drilling came out to replace my pump and tank with a swallow well pump. They did an awesome job, I'm very pleased with their work. They were efficient, polite, and answered all my questions. I would recommend them to fix all of your well needs.

Called late on Sunday evening and Rowan Well Drilling came out on Monday morning - had water back on by 12 noon. This included new tank, water line, and wire replacement. They did a great job and I highly recommend them if you need something done.
