Water pump accumulators

Whoops, I put this in the wrong forum!

Anyway, I did a quick search for other posts dealing with accumulators but didn't see one, so here goes!

I'm thinking of adding a accumulator to my 189FBS to help with pump cycling and somewhat with noise. Has anyone else installed one, and if so, how well has it performed and what model is it? They all say 20psi for pressure, but our pump pressurizes the line to 40psi, so I don't know if that is an issue or not.

I installed one on my 2012 189 FDS, they say it is not need, but it seems to have helped. Shurflo 189-200, also get dome hose and fitting to hadd more line between pump and distribution, this will quiet things down alot. We have to really listen now to hear pump running
