No, The average house pressure is 45 PSI. This should be enough pressure to work with. Pressure tanks and boosters pumps are used on pump installations and hi rise condos where the pressure loss is due to the heigth of the building. Regards, TomQuote:

A pressure or bladder tank in needed to insure a constant flow. Also to save the pump motor from burn out. Without a pressure tank the pump would start up every time you made a draw. Not a good situation! Regards, TomQuote:
