    I want to go back to the beginning..

    You mention “safety concerns” with the pressure tank….
    You may not know this but the tank only pressurizes to what 6 PSI??? the pressure relief valve, IF it fails, fails OPEN, so the tank can in NO WAY over pressurize.

    Pressure tanks are more common than you think and every part needed to rebuild the tank back to new specs, …is still available..

    Just wanted to clear that misinformation up.. There are NO safety concerns with the pressure tanks…LOL… I will get off my soapbox now…

    Most respectfully
