Title: demand or bypass ?
Post by: Steve Chapman on September 06, 2011, 10:40:38 am

Can someone explain the difference between an on demand and a bypass pump and whether they are both suitable for a portable ?


Cheers
Steve

Im lead to believe that a bypass pump recirculates the water when the trigger on the wand is closed or when the flow has stopped, i have a demand pump in my van which is a sureflo , this only starts pumping when it senses flow, the motor only works because its connected to a flow switch.

Hope this helps
