It's cool... Just wasn't sure, but after chatting to some tech guys on the phone they gave me a few tips. Forgot I had an old pump..

What readings you getting before you fitted booster and after mate?

 
If you speak to Jine at GAPS she will recommend this one.

You don't want the one that has the tank underneath.

Aldi had a couple of pumps around a while back for £50 as did B&Q. The guys who use these have had good service from them.
Thanks for info. Connected a shurflo 100psi pump> Works a treat :)

 
I must admit I splashed out a bit when I had my booster fitted. Drove all the way to Grimsby for a pure freedom special /emoticons/smile.png

It's been superb /emoticons/wink.png

 
Are these booster pumps electric do u have to plug in to mains socket? View attachment 1229thats my psi at the moment without a booster so i dont need one but i will be moving soon and i might need a booster depending on the pressure , i transfer from garden tap to my merlin (in my van) and into the tank can i fit the booster in my van permanently so i can just connect up and fill ?

80psi is fantastic mate. Personally if say if its below that get a booster. Mines 40 /emoticons/sad.png so needed a booster. It's electric yes, plug it in and away it goes /emoticons/wink.png

 
I was very surprised when i connected it all up Will it use up a lot of electric using a booster mate?

God knows I've never worked it out. All I know is it takes me 2 hours to fill a 600ltr tank. That's after 3 x 30" filters - carbon / sediment / softener and a 4040 RO /emoticons/wink.png
