Default Water pressure pump keeps turning on

In your situation, since you have pressure coming in to the pump,
booster pump would be appropriate.

So is "the tank" a storage tank higher than your house? IIRC, you did
say it has pressure coming in from it to the pump we have been discussing.


The storage tank is about fifteen feet tall and on the same concrete
platform as the pressure pump which is about fifteen feet above the house on
a hill.

That fifteen feet isn't enough to make the water run all that much inside
the house with the pump off (just a dribble).

Too bad as it would be nice to dispense altogether with the pressure pump.
