its the daddy, faultless and never missed a beat. production went from 100 litres an hour unpumped up to 300 litres an hour. Money well spent

Can you fit normal size hosepipe to those pumps?

you can, but you need 2x 1"BSP to 3/4"BSP thread step down, and then you need 2x 3/4 male thread to 1/2 hose tail.

i think the pump sits between outdoor tap and r.o (or di for that mattter) to boost your tap psi! if im not wrong?

my 650 gpd ro as its own booster on but could i "really go to town" by using this as well as my boosted ro?  ;D i could make 350 ltrs in minutes ;D
