Thinking of getting a stand buy water pump surflow 5.7 extream.
question is ,
My unit has an acumalator tank I think this keeps the pressure constant, (havent used it yet) so does the surflo, so does it make sense to use the extream pump or is there a differnt pump that delivers 5.7 GPM, that I can use with the acumlator tank.
Just looking to increase flow to a house level.
Thanks, Rich

I would skip the accumulater tank and just go with the sensor 5.7. I had the same setup as you but the new pump alone provides a much smoother flow and increased volume and pressure. I put a valve on the accum. tank and at night I turn off the pump, open the valve and let the tank flush the toilet so there's no noise at all.

The 5.7 is a good pump but Shurflo advises not to use an accumulator with it.
