No. Close off the main at the tank and add air (around 35 psi).
Mine came new with air pressure in the bladder & no water in the unit so I would assume that you would pressurize the bladder with no water in the unit . Hope this helps .
A water bladder pump works by using a flexible bladder to store and pressurize water. When water is needed, the pump pushes the water out of the bladder through pipes to different areas in a building. This system helps to efficiently distribute water in residential or commercial settings by maintaining a consistent water pressure and flow rate.
Mixer valve
If you are talking about a normal house, all you need to do to 'pressurize the system' is turn on the main valve, then open up each tap/faucet in turn until water is flowing freely.
Short, layman's answer- A pump at the top sucks water or one at the bottom pumps water up. This water goes into a rubber bladder in a pressure tank pre-charged with air that cannot escape. This air gives the household pressure as it forces the water out of faucets as they are opened.Short, layman's answer- A pump at the top sucks water or one at the bottom pumps water up.

You have to undo the aerator at the end of the faucet and clean the screen or plastic water saver out. It will be plugged with sand or sediment.
Generally the pressure in the tank air bladder should be 2 psi below the water pressure switch kick in (pump turn on) point. In this example of 48 to 68 Lbs the air bladder pressure should be 46 psi. This pressure should be measured with the tank empty of water, that is to say NO water pressure applied. NEVER over pressurize the air bladder - it would be better to under pressurize if in doubt. Some tank manufacturers may recommend a different PSI differential so check with the tank literature or the manufacturer.
Typically, towels, soap, and water faucets can be found in a bathroom.
Temperature balance shower body needs to be adjusted
old pipes in the sink or tub upstairs
up on the top of the tank there should be a air valve stem and most pressure tanks should have 30 to 40 psi bladder pressure but it all depends on your water pressure settings.
The easiest answer I can come up with is that you have a filter that is completely clogged up. Usually with filtration, the outside faucets are before the filtration so you don't put filtered water on your plants and grass etc.
