Just a note: apparently with geothermals (this is my first) it is normal for them to run long term, so should mean the pumps running a long time at a go?
If the pressure tank was shot shouldn't I be seeing short cycling? When I emptied the water from the tank with the pump off, shouldn't the air pressure in the bladder be low? I agree that a larger tank will help the pressure and delay cycling when the geothermal isn't running (which is a good thing) but, if the geothermal is running, the well pump will be running anyways as it uses a ton of water?
