Do I have to buy one for £240 or is there a cheaper alternative?
thanks.

I don't know what booster pump you are looking at for £240 but the one that is most recommended is this one from MachineMartDo I have to buy one for £240 or is there a cheaper alternative?
thanks.
are these booster pumps noisy, thinking of getting one for my van set upbut dont want something too noisy!
@Green Pro Clean Ltdhas one and has a video of it in use somewhere. Again its manually operated.I’ve been looking at this one, has anyone else got one ?

Cheers pal agh I’ll stick to 2-3 hours filling 5-600 litres then while its quiet?Yes they are and they will resonate inside your van. Annoying neighbours has been one complaint I've heard.
I use a slightly smaller 800 pump as a transfer pump. I can hear it down the street when the garage door is open. If it was on for a few hours I'm sure we would have complaints.
I’ve got the genie pump too. Nice bit of kit although it can make some random loud noises at times (I assume when a neighbour runs a tap or such like). I’ve had it around 2 1/2 years without fault. Mines semi automated with a pressflo pressure switch and linked to a solenoid on the waste. I just have to run it (pure to waste) for 3 minutes to clear the pure line and make sure the pressure switch doesn’t turn off the pump.I’ve been looking at this one, has anyone else got one ?

Cheers chaps.
Can anyone think of a way of increasing pressure without increasing flow?
Your r/o needs a certain amount of water to perform. If it doesn't get it then it won't work. You can't do what you suggested.Thanks Spruce.
My issue is everything, in short.
On a bore hole, that gives a TDS of 560. This has low pressure, sub 40psi. I’ve already found the end of the water supply, after flushing the 4040.
My TDS after ro is between 50 and 60.
This really needs to come down as we’re using 2000l a day, 7 days a week at the moment. Getting through lots of resin.
If I run a booster pump, I’m guessing I’ll be draining the bore hole sooner, which is a nightmare and not good for sediment filters etc.
Perhaps if I resticted the flow, and then boosted the water, I may get a lower TDS with lower production?
or buy pallets of resin......
Yes, but you said you needed 2000 liters a pure a day. A smaller r/o won't produce the amount you need.Bummer. Maybe a smaller membrane would be better suited.
