For Kalk you don't need to use a pump. I run a Rain Bird solenoid valve like you use for sprinkler systems and hook that to the ATO I have. So when the ATO calls for water the valve opens up and I just pipe my RO/DI storage tank to the valve the the kalk reactor and wala I have make up water. Pretty easy to use.
