When I used to sell water treatment equipment, we sold plastic pressure tanks for use as water storage tanks with residential RO systems.
Made from Polyproplene, NSF certified, never rusts, has an air valve to adjust pressure, non-replaceable bladder. We had them from 1.5 to 3 gallons in size. Should be able to find them at any decent water treatment equipment company. Roy On 2011-03-03, at 12:01 PM, Philip wrote: > I would think it has something to do with the shaft seal on the pump.
