How do you test a pressure tank?:o
I'm going to assume that you're referring to a bladder tank. There are several ways to test a bladder pressure tank. (1) Open the snifter valve on top of the tank. If water comes out tank's faulty, **OR** (2) Take a metal object and start at the bottom of the tank and start tapping. You should hear a "clunk" until you get about half way up the tank. Then you should hear a "clank".Quote:

In both cases if it fails (1) and(2) the tank must be replaced. Good luck, Tom
