Thanks.  I'll give it a try.

Thanks for the reply.  It would be easy to put a booster pump and CSV after the cistern but increasing the pipe size is a much bigger job.  Is the CSV a wasted effort without larger pipe?

I want to upgrade my small irrigation system.  I currently have a 5hp submersible pump in a  400 ft drilled well.  It pumps into an elevated  10,000 gallon citrine and gravity flows to our residence and 3 small food plots on my shooting preserve (2 acres each).   The supply pipe to the fields is 2” PVC and they stretch 2000 feet.   The system will currently run about 3 low flow impact sprinklers at the end of the line, 4 is too many.      I’d like to get maximum pressure to as many sprinkler heads as possible without overdoing the system.    Will a cycle stop valve help?   And how should it be integrated?
