FAQs: Water Tank Storage Systems | |
|
Question: I have seen other tank systems advertised on the web for less money. I do not understand what is so different about Well Manager or why they cost more? Answer: This is a great question and one I am sure is on the mind of many who visit our website. But let me ask you a question. Why do you think there are so many personal testimonials on our website when on most of the other’s sites you see only the vendor’s recounting of past accomplishments with few if any personal customer testimonials? When considering what to do about your low yield well please be aware that there is nothing new about atmospheric tank water storage systems. This type of system dates back to the Romans and is still in wide use throughout the world today. These systems have a pretty poor reputation in the United States because of so many problems with contaminated water. For an explanation of why this is so, click the following link and when done click the back arrow to return here http://www.wellmanager.com/wellmanager_applications_abovegroundtanks.htm . If Well Manager is just another tank system, then ask yourself how we convinced the United States and Canadian Governments to issue patents for something that some people would have you believe can be had elsewhere for half the price? The reality is that a Well Manager is protected by two patents in the USA and one in Canada because it is different and is so effective that it can replace a tank system that has 8-10 times more storage and provide a more reliable water supply using a poorer source. In fact, many of our customers had one of those other tank or cistern systems before they purchased their Well Manager®.

When you contact us you will soon realize that our goal is to get you the water you need. Most of the time all that is needed is a properly sized, installed and set up Well Manager® or even our less expensive Herculan ConstaBoost™ but sometimes we will tell you that your well pump or piping needs repair or drilling a well or some other option or combination of options makes more sense in your particular case. Well Manager Controls are UL® Listed so you will have no problems with the electrical inspector when you install our system in a new home or on any job that requires a permit. Some other controls lead you to believe that they too are UL Listed but if you read closely you will realize that it is only the power cord or some component that is UL Listed. An electrical inspector will not be fooled. The following is a quote from another web site describing their product: “comes completely assembled with a UL listed 115 volt standard house plug in connection on it.” We provide phone help for technical questions or to set up the timing for your well and we will teach you how to interpret the information your Well Manager is providing about your well water levels and the aquifer to which it is connected so that you can detect changes due to drought or any other cause and adjust to them. If there are problems with equipment, help is as close as your phone or computer during and after the warranty period even on weekends. The Well Manager control panel is designed so that we can tell you what is wrong over the phone and in most cases get the water back on quickly. If you purchase a Well Manager you will get a completed ready to run system with everything installed in it or on it not a kit that requires you to build the system following their direction manual. There is no pump or float switch to buy or install. The Well Manager Manual teaches you about your well, well pump and the components of the Well Manager System. It teaches you what you must know to be successful with an aquifer that has thus far failed to supply you adequately using conventional systems. You will learn that it is not the size of the tank but how you operate the well that determines how much water is available for your family. In most cases timing is set up at installation and requires no further adjustment but in very low yield situations you may speak with us a couple of times per week for two or three weeks to help you make minor timing adjustments before we arrive at exactly the right settings for your well. Though we speak a great deal about timing, you will soon find out that a Well Manager is much more than a simple well timer. It combines a number of measurable parameters like flow, pressure, and time in a way that puts you in control of a seemingly uncontrollable situation while protecting your pump in the event that your timing set up becomes inappropriate no matter what the reason. You can read more about this here: How a Well Manager Works Well Manager Controls are made to last forever. There is no printed circuit board that can fail and make the system inoperative until it is replaced. Our controls are hard wired, relay logic, with readily available digital components that plug in and everything in the control can be replaced. In most component failures there is a way to make the system function while you wait for parts – our technicians can help you with that and parts are in stock for immediate shipment. If need be, replacement parts can be found in the marketplace locally or on the internet. In short, a Well Manager is a patented, readily serviceable appliance with UL Listed Control that you set in place, connect to the well and water pipes, make a few wire connections and automatically manages your well and protects your pumps so that you have the water you need. Thousands of people across North America and elsewhere are happy with their Well Manager Systems and you will be too! |
