Has anyone added a water pump accumulator to their system?. If so, was it worth it, did you notice a difference? Thanks.

Yes to both questions! Not expensive, as it has no motor, but makes a significant difference in the even flow as the pressure seldom changes.
For short usages, i.e. a glass of water or rinse of the hands, the pump usually will not even cycle on.

Ditto to what Roz said - have added accumulators to sailboat potable water systems - makes a great difference. Only maintence is to pressure up the internal air bladder about twice a year.
