    For "What it's worth" department

    Yes removing the pressure tank and old switch is a great idea. You can get this here as well. The pump starts and stops (Providing its full pressure capacity) when you turn on off the water. a 1/2hp truper works very well.

    new water pump for two story house. Why no tank

    Without a tank your pressure is constant, turn on the water he pump turns on.
