Thanks, yes I understand, but it's not going to be flushed 100 times, it'll be flushed once and nothing else will cause a draw until someone else flushes a toilet (e.g. an hour or so later) as taps etc don't draw from the well. But I take your point: it's a drop in the ocean for stopping the...

For the use of the hosepipe for long periods (sprinklers, filling the swimming pool etc.) this makes perfect sense and while they're there, this would be at least every couple of days for sustained periods. However, for the cisterns (not sinks/showers etc. which are mains supply), this would...

Makes perfect sense, thanks

I assume there's no issues using a CSV to pump water upstairs (currently upstairs cisterns but later desire to use for washing machine fill too)? I guess the pump must be able to produce adequate pressure, otherwise it would never have been able to repressurise the current tank? Thanks Steve

edit: --I think understand what you mean by this now "Yes, you can air it back up but unless it has only a small leak, you cannot really monitor the pressure since it won't hold pressure." - you mean I need to follow that process to repressurise it - fair enough. Once done and I've managed to...

Thanks for the replies. I'm not sure if it's bladder or diaphragm, I'm not there at the moment to check model numbers etc so can't be sure. Don't believe there's any leak as there's no evidence of the pump running without toilets filling/outside tap being run. I'm not at all happy with the...
