Light Grey Premium Finish (formerly blue) color available for shipment within 10 days. The almond colored version of this tank (H2Pro series) also from Flexcon is available for Same Day Shipment.
The PC88 Well Pressure Tank Diameter is 16 inches x 34.5 inches tall and this tank has a female threaded 1 inch bottom inlet. The H2Pro WWT25 almond colored version of the PC88 is an identical sized, but slightly less expensive tank (36 inches tall x 17 inches wide) also manufactured by Flexcon, with color being the only real difference. We recommend purchasing the WWT25 because it seems to hold a little more water which is easier on your pump, pressure switch and electric bill.
Drawdown (before pump kicks on) is 10.5 gallons with a 20-40 pressure switch, 8.9 gallons with a 30-50 pressure switch and 7.7 gallons with a 40-60 pressure switch.
The PC88 tank is close to equivilent in performance to an 82 gallon galvanized (non-bladder) tank, and has an actual tank water volume of 26 gallons. The primary advantage of the PC88 Tank is it's configuration (less than 35 inches tall x 16 inches wide), which allows it to be installed in cabinets or other confined spaces, while still providing performance usually found only in larger more obtrusive tanks.
The PC88 tank has a factory pressure charge of 38 lbs psi and maximum operating pressure is rated for 125 lbs psi. Regardless of what tank brand or size you install, your tank bladder pressure must be adjusted to your pressure swich situation at time of tank installation in order for your well system to operate correctly. Follow link provided for tank installation and pressure adjustment instructions.
Notice - Our entire stock of Flexcon H2Pro, Well-X-Trol and Flexcon Challenger tanks all contain Diaphragms now instead of "bladders" for longer service life.
Flexcon Challenger tanks are now manufactured with a Light Grey Premium Finish (formerly blue) in color, so they do contrast when placed in shrub areas. The Flexcon H2Pro tank is the same exact tank produced in regular finish almond color which blends in very well with stucco finishes or in shrub areas where they are mounted against a wall painted with one of todays modern earth colors. Challenger tanks are priced slightly higher than H2Pro series tanks.
Flexcon Challenger tanks are the industrys fighting brand and one of the more popular water tanks on the market. Efficient and cost-effective, Challenger tanks are designed with a patented controlled action, double diaphragm assembly that is completely contained in a pre-pressurized air cushion that reduces condensation and regulates bladder action.
