Is the water always up there?

How does the water get up there? I assume pumps but it all just doesn’t compute in my brain.

Think of a water tower as a pressure battery. They pump water to it during off-peak hours so that during peak hours when demand is higher than what the system can provide the water tower can make up the difference.
