dave,

i am unsure if i understand you correctly, but you want to have a
continously running punp and block of the water? i dont think that would
work as the pump a) uses power all the time and b) overheats because the
water is not moving? however rv stores do sell shower handles that have an
electric switch integrated, basically same as the westy faucet but in a
shower form. you could link that to a second pump and there you go!
