\nCommon Questions About Tank Installation Costs<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\nDo I need a pump?<\/strong>
Most homes do. Without a pump, water pressure may be weak, especially in double-storey homes.<\/p>\n
Yes \u2014 with a changeover valve system. This ensures safe municipal integration.<\/p>\n
If the water is used for washing or flushing, basic filtration is fine. For drinking water, carbon + UV is recommended.<\/p>\n
