Default Water Pressures

Anyone running blower motors without thermostats and what kind of water pressures are you getting?

Running, they read zero at idle or close to it. I just make sure the sea strainer is swirling and water is coming out of the pipes!!

I wasn't sure if not having the t'stat would drop the pressure, I'm still going to keep checking for sand but water is swirling and squirting so I hope all is well
