What is a water booster pump?
Booster pumps increase low water pressure and flow. It provides the extra boost needed to bring your water pressure to the desired level. A water booster pump provides pressure to move water from a storage tank or throughout a whole house or commercial facility.
How does a Booster Pump work?
Essentially, a booster pump boosts water pressure. In many cases, a booster pump will increase the flow rate. Booster pumps work very similarly to fans. A booster pump has an impeller that is inside the unit that increases water flow and pressure in much the same fashion.
When is a booster pump needed?
There is a multitude of household water pressure problems a pressure booster pump can help alleviate.
This includes:
- Bringing water out of a water/rain harvesting tank
- Increasing a home’s household pressure if it is too low
- Increasing water pressure for irrigation systems
- Pumping water from an alternative water source such as a river, pond, or stream
- Boost water pressure as a result of the low supply of city water.
- Push water from ground levels up multiple levels.
Save on Energy Costs!
The variable frequency drives enable the pump to operate at a lower speed, resulting in significant energy savings. When a pump operates at a speed that is 20% slower, your energy consumption is lowered by as much as 50%
