70 psi would be safe and give you great pressure in your home. For some it may be too much. If your on a well, you will have fluctuating pressure in most cases so a pressure switch setting of 50/70 psi would be good.
The optimum water pressure for most homes is typically in the range of 40-60 pounds per square inch (psi). This range provides enough pressure for efficient water flow throughout the house without causing damage to pipes, fixtures, or appliances. It's important to note that local building codes and regulations may specify a specific range, so it's recommended to consult with a professional plumber or check with your local water department for the recommended water pressure in your area.
"Best" is a matter of opinion. The "best" water pressure is one that allows you to use the lowest possible pressure to allow proper function of all your fixtures. This reduces the stress on all of the pipes, fittings, fixtures, and appliances that require water. Typical residential water pressure runs between 30psi and 80psi.
No and yes. No, you won't get more water pressure. To do that you'll need to find out why the water pressure is low. Perhaps flow restriction, perhaps a poorly adjusted water pressure regulator, perhaps low pressure from the well/city water. But an additional water heater will certainly give you more hot water. It would be like putting in a LARGER water heater. In most cities the water pressure required is about 20 PSI. Small city's do not add pressure pumps to their system but use a gravity supply. That is why most places there is a pressure problem either build their water tanks taller or erect them on a hill.
They would if not for the use of motorized pumps, that push the water to the upper levels.
Pump it into a storage tank and use an electric shower pump to increase pressure,Pump starts when a tap is turned on
The water pressure in my house is about 140PSI. Which is definitely dangerous. It happens more often than you would think. What happens is a city will use water supply lines which are too small for the water requirements. Therefore, they have to increase the pressure. You wouldn't want a pressure relief valve, because then if the pressure was too high, it would just spray water everywhere to release the pressure. You would want a pressure regulator installed, which is what I am working on for my house right now. Just to let you know though, you may have to get a thermal expansion tank for your water heater if you don't have one. See, the new pressure regulators have a check valve in them, which prevents water from traveling back into the city pipes once it has gotten into your house. When your water heater heats the water, the air bubbles in it expand, which increases the water pressure, and will probably cause your pressure relief valve on your water heater to blow. You can get a cheap water pressure meter at any improvement store to check it out. 50-60 PSI is ok. I would say you could take it up to 70 or 80 PSI safely.
Yes you can use a flow meter to measure your water pressure. They are available at any home improvement retailer.

Water.
There are many different ways to use a 'water pressure pump' . Any water pump will build up pressure, this is the basic principle of well pumps, and similar. Most are 'used' by a pressure switch which turns the pump on when pressure decreases to a certain point.
It will be the same pressure that burst the silicon radiator hose whether you use water or air to burst it. The difference is probably the hose is designed for use with pressured water or use with compressed air.
Water pressure from a garden hose is sufficient.

Optimum: meaning Most conducive to a favorable outcome; bestThe optimum food for chickens is a mix of grains and protein pellets.The almanac claims the optimum time for fishing this month will be on Sunday.
For a common diffusing gas burner use at home, the flame temperature should be in the order of 1800 - 1900 oC. Optimum combustion with air is 1977 oC but that must be at optimum air:fuel ratio.
The largest use of domestic water is in the home bathroom. The toilet accounts for the majority of water used in the home.
Yes, because the water you are recirculating is already past the pressure regulator.
