Water system Query!

[LG57-UPS.]

Hi all.
I gather you can have a water system,thats either micro switches in the taps.Or a system that works off pressure.
How do i easily tell,what system my caravan has,without dismantling things?

Many thanks

With water in the system turn a tap on and you will hear the pump start. When you turn the tap off...
If the pump stops instantly then you have switches:
If the pump continues to run for a second or two and seems to slow slightly before stopping the system is pressure operated.

Simples?

Not actually true.
Nearly all taps come with microswitches in them but with a pressure system they, the wires, are simply not connected to anything.

So shall i go by the pump running /shut off time as a best way of telling?

Have a look at one of the taps and see if the wires are connected or not.
