    How does well pump and expansion tank operate
    Hello I have an Gitrac VHEF 80 pressured water tank installed. However the water pressure in my taps are now either really high (water splashes averywhere) or very low and water is just dripping out. What could be the problem? I don't see any pressure meter anywhere.
