Accumulator - another pressure question
My 2000 Monaco has a accumulator tank in the water system. Does the tank control or regulate the pressure when using the pump, or is it a pass through that delivers whatever pressure the pump delivers...

Don't know why I didn't do this in the first place. Called Shurflo tech support. Here is what they recommended. The Revolution series pumps are designed to work without a accumulator. I can either drain the pressure and let it work as a pass through or take it out.
Time to take another look at the plumbing. When the new pump arrives, part of the install will be to first raise the accumulator pressure from 20 to 30 psi and see how it works. If I'm not happy with the performance I'll bypass the accumulator tank completely and remove the tank.
Thanks again for the comments and help.
