Kind of depends--if pipeline or system down, do any alternatives exist for emergency water? What's history of existing system been re' breakdowns or shutoffs? Any rumors of present system getting old, overburdened by new hookups or unreliable? How much of an outlay is the 6K?? Any part recoverable re' txs? If it's no big deal, and you're very dependent on pipeline, might be worth it for wife's piece of mind; if it's major outlay you really don't want to make, that's another thing. Your 70 (100-200?) gal tank could be best answer, or tank you could load on truck, drive to place to fill, haul home in emergencies?? Is water in your area "vein" or "sheet'? Vein is often hit or miss (hit at 200 here, 30 feet away not till 250-300); sheet is basically same for large areas. If vein area, est could be short. Sorry; you asked for answers, all I have are questions. Good luck.)
