Newbie question: while our water pump moves water, it isn't a strong stream. Had a neighbor who also has a trailer confirm that our water pressure is pretty much the way it is in hers. So my question is, are there levels of pumps (more efficient and more $$$ to less efficient and less $) that can be installed? Thank you for your collective wisdom. I really appreciate the answers to my questions.

Technology gets better and pumps get better as new stuff is developed. I know when I changed the original pump and added a new pump, my pump pressure increased minimally. You can add a reservoir system, which basically adds a storage ability, not convinced that is a practical solution, but many do it. ------------- Mike Carter 2015 178 " I had the right to remain silent, I just didn't have the ability." |

Low pressure conserves your water if it has to last...
I hate the noise from the pump especially on a quiet night...  ------------- Porta Poddy Wil and Luz, Orange County, CA 2017.5 179 HRE 2021 Ranger XLT FX4 REDARC Brake Controller |
