We are looking to installing a irrigation system at our lake house using lake water. Is is necessary to have a pressure tank with our pump or can we just use a pump large enough to carry the water to the heads. I have heard two different opinions. They say it is better to have a pressure tank so it will save the life of the pump. Then again the other opinion is that it is not necessary to have a pressure tank. Will it hurt the pump to run all the time while watering the lawn? Or will it save the life of the pump to have a pressure tank?
Thanks in advance for your opinions. Please help me.
