&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Is it possible to model this system in SewerCAD?&amp;nbsp; If so, do I need to have both a pressure pipe and a conduit in the model for certain pipe segments?&amp;nbsp; Would it be easier to model this diversion system in WaterCAD?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thank you for the response. &amp;nbsp;I was able to get the booster pump to turn on and prevent the hydropneumatic tanks from emptying completely. &amp;nbsp;All four tanks are connected to the main waterline by individual pipes (one pipe for each tank) that connect to a common junction on the main line. &amp;nbsp;With the EPS I&amp;#39;ve been running, the four tanks should be inactive during the day (with one or two booster pumps providing all the needed flows and pressures during the day), and there should therefore be no flow in the pipes that connect to the tanks.&amp;nbsp; However, whenever I graph the flow for any of these four pipes, I get the plot shown below.&amp;nbsp; These spikes and drops in flow are causing the tanks to experience abrupt changes in pressure and liquid volume when these parameters should remain constant during the day (due to the pipe being closed).&amp;nbsp; I have controls set up so that the pipes are set to be closed, so I&amp;#39;m not sure why these spikes and drops in flow are occurring in the first place.&amp;nbsp; Do you know why they may be occurring?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whenever I run an EPS, the results show that the booster pump never turns on, and I get several user notifications saying &amp;quot;Hydropneumatic Tank HT-1/2/3/4 is empty.&amp;quot;&amp;nbsp; The same thing happens when I use the tanks&amp;#39; internal pressure as a basis for the booster pump controls. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you know what the problem might be? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
