In case, pressure tank (conventional) : 23.52105 gals
WATER TANK SIZING

The storage tank volume sizing is typically based on the average probable water demand
factored by the hours of storage required. Generally size the storage tank is selected
for 12 hours, 24 hours or higher, based on knowledge of the reliability of the utility supply
and the criticality of his operations.
