Complete Pressure Tank Repair & Installation in Gatineau

Your pressure tank is a critical component of your well water system, maintaining consistent water pressure throughout your home and reducing wear on your well pump. When pressure tanks fail, you'll notice symptoms like fluctuating water pressure, pumps that run constantly, or no water pressure at all. Plombier Gatineau services and installs pressure tanks for homes throughout the Outaouais region.

Pressure tanks work by storing pressurized water and releasing it as you use fixtures throughout your home. This prevents your well pump from cycling on and off with every glass of water. A properly functioning tank means consistent pressure, reduced pump wear, and lower energy costs. We service all tank types and sizes.

Pressure Tank Problems We Solve

Our licensed plumbers have the experience and equipment to handle:

  • Waterlogged Tank — A tank that loses its air charge becomes waterlogged and causes rapid pump cycling.
  • No Pressure — Failed bladders or diaphragms result in complete loss of stored pressure.
  • Pump Short-Cycling — When tanks can't hold pressure, pumps cycle constantly, wasting energy.
  • Fluctuating Pressure — Inconsistent water pressure throughout your home often indicates tank problems.
  • Visible Damage — Rust, corrosion, or physical damage may require tank replacement.
  • Wrong Size — Undersized tanks cause excessive pump cycling; oversized tanks are inefficient.

Frequently Asked Questions

This usually indicates a waterlogged pressure tank. The bladder has failed, reducing the tank's effective storage and causing the pump to cycle excessively. Replacement is typically needed.

Tank size depends on your pump's flow rate and desired pressure range. Larger tanks reduce pump cycling. We recommend at least 1 gallon of storage per GPM of pump output.

Quality bladder tanks typically last 10-15 years. Lifespan depends on water quality, proper air pressure maintenance, and usage patterns.

Air pressure should be 2 PSI below the pressure switch cut-in setting. For example, if your switch cuts in at 40 PSI, tank pressure should be 38 PSI. We set this correctly during service.

Yes! Frequent cycling from a waterlogged tank dramatically shortens pump life. Each start creates wear on the motor. Replacing a failed tank protects your pump.
