When you set the tank up high it will gravity feed as mentioned before. For every ten feet in height above the faucet opening will increase the water pressure (psi) approx. 4.33 psi. So 20 ft above the opening will give you approx 8.66 psi. Hope it helps.

your getting gravity feed from the tank, the higher the tank the more water pressure you will have

so that you can use the simple and renewable energy of gravity in place of a means of water pressure that requires more power and natural resources, etc.

to get the most amount of water into it and to use gravity to help pull it down into your house would be my guess.

gravity law.
is easier to flowing water from above to below than vice versa.
