add pump to city water supply side?

I've come to discover that the water pressure pump only works in my RV from the water tank, not from city water.


I'm living full time where I have a continuous supply of spring water, and would prefer to just have the RV connected to this, versus filling the tank and using that system. However, the spring water supply has very little pressure, and I'd like to boost that.


Is it possible and practical to add a pump to the city water supply instead of only having pressure when using the tank.


Also, the tank pressure pump doesn't add very much pressure, and showers still suck. is there a limit to how much pressure RV plumbing can handle? It appears the RV is plumbed with Pex, which should handle at least 50 lbs of pressure fine (it does in my house). I have no problem replacing fixtures if necessary.


Thoughts?
