Default Water Pressure Range Question

Thanks, Tony. That's what I meant. I wasn't quite organized
enough that moment, to clarify what I mumbled. You're both
kind, and correct. Glad you were able to fumpah flabble un
mumffunner.

60 psi is hardly stressing the plumbing. The booster pumps
we use (Goulds
Aquaboost IIs) are rated to output up to 100 PSI as are
the water system service
lines. And because we live in an area where power can go
out for extended
periods of time, we do keep a 50 gallon gravity feed tank
of emergency water in
the garage along with two 5 gallon jerry cans. Have used
them more than once!


I don't think Stormin Mormon meant you are stressing the
system, just
that your system is complex, so it would be a good idea to
have some
extra water on hand. That's how I read it anyway.
