Holding Tank & Reservoir Tank Services

For many well systems, especially in rural or high-demand situations, a holding tank or reservoir tank plays a critical role in maintaining consistent water availability.

At Asheville Pump & Well Services, we install, repair, and service holding tanks and reservoir systems throughout Western North Carolina. Whether you need additional water storage, backup supply, or improved system performance, we provide dependable solutions built for long-term reliability.

A holding tank (also called a storage or reservoir tank) stores water after it is pumped from the well. Unlike a pressure tank, which regulates pressure, a holding tank stores volume.

These systems are commonly used when:

• Well yield is low
   
• Water demand exceeds well production
   
• Additional storage is needed for irrigation or livestock
   
• A property is in a remote or elevated location
   
• Backup water supply is desired
   

A properly installed holding tank system can protect your pump and ensure your household has consistent access to water.

You may benefit from a holding tank system if you experience:

• Low-producing well output
   
• Water running out during high usage
   
• Pressure loss when multiple fixtures are used
   
• Irrigation demand exceeding supply
   
• Frequent pump cycling due to low yield
   

Instead of overworking your well pump, a holding tank stores water gradually and supplies it efficiently when needed.

1. Water is pumped from the well into the storage tank.
    
2. A float switch monitors water levels.
    
3. A booster pump delivers water from the tank into the home.
    
4. A pressure tank maintains consistent household pressure.
    

This setup reduces strain on your well pump and helps prevent system overload.
