Title: Booster Pump for a 40/40 system
Post by: Clever Forum Name on July 02, 2017, 06:14:36 pm
Hi Guys

Never really bothered looking into these as water production wasn't really as issue.

Now we need to produce more per day what sort of pump would people recommend.

Tap pressure has slightly dropped down to 60PSI but usually it's 60 as a minimum then upto 80PSI.

I believe Darran from odd bods recommended one? I know the Clarke is popular as well?

We have the S3 controller so pump will switch off and on with system.

Thanks.

If your water pressure is at 80psi sometimes, a booster pump will increase that even higher. I don't know what the maximum pressure those prefilter housings will tolerate.

I would also think about adding a second IBC tank to your current system so you have more capacity when you need it.

Hi spruce its all stainless but good shout on the pressure.

We have x2 1500L containers already, just if everyone fills at the same time it can be close to being empty.

500,750,850 and 650  :-X

That's always the problem. I'm guessing your van is in the statistics as well. If you fill up at night (late evening) that's one down.

If you are selling water you have to account for everyone filling at the same time.
