Thank you sir for your response. I have learned something good today!

The system I'm hoping to use has a pressure switch in the system.

So say your plumber has decided that 15psi is your needed pressure then the pump will not operate unless the pressure drops below 15psi as in when a tap is open. It just will never pump over 15psi regardless how many taps are open all over the place. I have a poor mans bungalow but I can envision needing two pumps for multi level structure.

It might appear that I'm creating "a problem for a solution" but I'm retired, it's my own private residence, funded by me and I like to tinker"

PS: A small solar system can power this effortlessly without intervention.

I like the ground based tank with pressure pump.

Quick question sir: does the pressure pump need to run at all times when water/taps is used on an upper floor level?

On this crucial structure I’ll defer to the pros. I used pipes but it will be coming down in the near future because I’ll be using a ground based Storex with a pressure pump.

Good luck on your project.
