T-KJr. with Storage Tank The maximum flow rate through the T-KJR is 5.8 GPM. If it is necessary to achieve higher flow rates with full pressure for longer periods of time, then it can be installed in conjunction with a storage tank. A pump will be necessary to keep the storage tank water hot. We suggest a high-head pump of 1/12 hp or greater depending on the system.
