[QUOTE="Hjwise, post: 7605992, member: 145185"] I fill a 20,000l tank with the bore pump using two float switches that kicks in when the level drops to 10,000l (so I have backup if pump fails) and stops when full. I then have a small pump drawing from this tank controlled by an inverter that maintains a constant pressure (usually 1.1 bar). This means the bore pump is not start/stopping frequently as it would on a pressure vessel system and is only running at a pressure needed to fill the tank. The cheaper small pump is only running at the speed necessary to maintain system pressure (via a small expansion vessel), so is efficient. It works well. [/QUOTE]
