Gravity from loft tank pushes the water out of the "immersion" tank. The pump is probably for the central heating, I take it it's not a combi boiler. Taps have different internals for low pressure (ie tank fed) and mains pressure. If you get the wrong one/ones then a very slow fill rate is all you will get. Some is true for cistern refills (ballcock in old money).
