That's a good question.  I just assumed it had a switch.  I'll have to take
a look under there once I get home... Anyone else know off-hand?

If in fact, if it is pressure operated, I definitely don't need a second
pump.  That would be nice.

Hmm, what switch? Isn't the on-demand pump always on and only running when
 there's a difference in pressure (like when the faucet is open)? Or is
there a
 switch in the faucet?

Thanks,

Philippe
