Jet pump pressure tank systems
I have an old Ruth Berry deep well system (pump in tank). By old, I mean well drilled in 1974 and used until 1978, then re-activated in 1989. Have constant problems with "water logging". Running a 3/4 hp pump. With 4 adults and 1 child drawing off system, feel it's overworked. Considered putting in new well and system, but want to explore my options. Considering going with a separate 1 hp pump with larger 50+ gallon tank. Your thoughts?

I am trying to increase my water system pressure to the minimum required 40 PSI to feed my reverse osmosis drinking water filter. However, the 33 gallon pressure tank for my well pump system says it is pre-charged at 30 PSI and that the cut in pressure for my pump should be set equal to that 30...
