Does anyone have a pressure water system in their home, the kind with a pump drawing water from a cistern with a small air pressure tank mounted on it...could you see the brand name and model # for me...thanks in advance, Rick

There is one at my house that works very well. I can't tell you the name and model because the name plate is on the other side up against the wall. You will find many sizes on display in your neighborhood pump store that usually has a large sign that says BOMBA

We have an “on demand” pressure system installed that we have been happy with. It is a ROWA brand pump.

I also have the Rowa and love it. Mine is the "Tango" version for a tinaco (roof tank), but there's also a model that works directly with a cisterna. Mine uses very little power and doesn't make a sound.

Rick ... you might want to compare price on Mercado Libre before buying elsewhere. I saved about 2000 pesos off local retail that way.

In case you're not familiar with ML, it sort of works like eBay, except that many (most?) sellers are commercial vendors rather than individuals. The guy I bought my pump from was an authorized Rowa dealer.
