Valve to contain the return of water

Hello good day. I have the problem that when I run out of water in the tank (it happens to me when the well is low) the pipes in my house empty and many times I find it hard to get back to get pressure in the shower. I bought a non-return valve to place in the pipe, is that enough to solve the problem? Should we place a valve in the hot water pipe and another in the cold one? Greetings and thanks. Ezequiel

Hi. If I understand correctly you have a pump that sucks water from a well and fills a pond that is high and supplies water by gravity to the home, is that correct? Or do you have a submerged pump? Do you have a hydropack? press control? I fear that the non-return valve is not the solution but clarify the previous doubts first.

Hello! First, thank you very much.
I have a submersible pump that fills the tank in height (I don't have mains water), and from that tank water is supplied to the house by gravity. From the tank comes a pipe with a T where a pipe for hot water and another for cold.
Thank you!

Then the only solution that I see is to pressurize the tank - home section. Put an economical hydropack with a level switch float in the tank that activates / stops the hydropack pump before the water runs out in the tank. With this system the water will end up the same but when the water arrives again the hydropack will pressurize the system again. The non-return valve that you already acquired alone does not work, but if you want to try my recommendation you must go between the tank and the pump. Luck

There are also simpler and cheaper devices to increase the water pressure in the circuit

But it is necessary to understand that with the system that is currently installed there will always be the possibility that the tank will run out of water.

Hi EZEQUIEL: If the tank is empty, you have no solution, if you save at what point of the installation and generates the air bubble, you can place a vacuum breaker. LUCK
