Why is a water tower important?

Water pressure is naturally created by having the source of water at an elevation higher than the destination. Spring water can be collected at a higher elevation and piped to a house at a lower elevation to provide running water - with reasonable pressure - no pump required. A water tower is "artificial elevation" to provide water pressure for home or a neighborhood. A very general rule of thumb is the higher the tower the higher the water pressure at the tap.
