Revision history [back]
Break Pressure Tank vs Pressure Reducing Valve
Hello all,
I am working on an extension to a water network in a refugee camp. The extension is to a lower area outside of the previous boundary, with the taps being between 65 and 80 metres below the reservoir. The peak flow rate to this zone will be around 24 l/s currently, but could be expanded to 30 - 35 l/s in future.
We can either install a break pressure tank or a pressure reducing valve. Which would be preferable, or what would be the factors affecting this decision?
