Default Well pump comes on after only 2 gallons used???

Usable size of a 32 is probably around 18 or so. *If the differential
between the cutoff and cuton is not very much a couple gallons might
be all it takes. *Why is it a problem? *You use the water, the pump
comes on. *You want a bigger reserve before the pump comes on get a
bigger tank.- Hide quoted text -


I suspect a problem because it sounds very peculiar that withdrawing
only 2gallons will cause a pump cycle. If the usable capacity is
around 18gallons, it sounds weird that I only actively use 10% of
that. That's why I'm concerned.
