Fig. 14.—Pneumatic tank supply system with tank in basement supplied by hand force pump. Each tank is equipped with a pressure gauge w^hich will show the internal pressure at any time. If water is pumped into the tank until the pressure gauge registers 25 pounds, water can be forced about 60 feet above the tank. If a discharge cock 20 feet above the tank is opened, water is discharged until the pressure falls to 19611°—14—-3.
