A water tower is actually a large, sturdy tub on legs, with a tube through which the water can pass. Drinking water is stored in the tub as a reserve.
A liter of water weighs a kilo, so if you pile up a lot of water, you get enormous pressure at the bottom. This pressure ensures that the water in your home flows from the tap, even from the top floor of your house.
