Water pump problem

[Gardner Yeaw]

Keith,
The object is to inflate the bladder in the tank to 10 or 15lbs
when there is no water preasure compressing it. Then when you build
water preasure it will compress the bladder and thus compress the
air raising the pressure in the bladder. Now when you open the
fawcett the presure in the bladder will force the water out and give
you a reserve before the pump needs to energize. If the bladder is
pre-preasurized to 50lbs, you would need to build the water presure
to 50lbs before the bladder began to compress.

I hope this makes sense!
