    the largest one you can afford. The larger it is the longer the pump will last.

    How many GPM does that pump deliver from the depth of the well you are using?
    Your plumber should do the calculation from that number, and the number of fixtures to size the tank..
    (Bigger is better. - With three baths, you might be flushing
    two toilets with some-one in the shower.)
