what setup are ya'll using for pressured water at the camp?

we have community water but it has very low pressure. would like a setup for the skinning shed and washing equipment.

Thinking of a 120v rv pump and a 55 gallon drum, but need a way to stop supplying it when it fills.

ideas welcome.
thanks

Dave

Float Valve will be your friend. Either a Fluid Master (maybe not) or a float valve from a watering trough would work beautifully.

They are available at any feed store, tractor supply etc. for just a few dollars.
