Constant Pressure System Conversion in Great Falls, MT

A constant pressure system pairs a variable speed drive like the Franklin SubDrive or Grundfos SQE with a smaller pressure tank. The pump speeds up or slows down to hold a set pressure, so showers do not fade when a sprinkler kicks on. These systems cost more, often $2,500 to $5,000, but they eliminate pressure swings. They also reduce hard starts on the motor. We explain whether your well and pump are good candidates.
