A booster pump is used to increase the water pressure of your plumbing fixtures if they don’t currently meet code requirements. However, it’s essential to inspect your system and call for booster pump repairs to ensure that a clog or leak doesn’t cause low water pressure.

Do I Need a Booster Pump?

If you’re considering adding a booster pump to your plumbing system, ask yourself these questions to find the right option for you:

  • What is my water flow rate? Knowing your home’s average flow rate determines if you need a booster pump. Your current gallons per minute or GPM will help us decide the increase of pressure your home or business needs.
  • How much water do I need? In commercial spaces, you may have low water pressure because of the significant increase in water usage. Generally, a 50-unit apartment building needs more water than a single-family home, so the need for a booster pump will differ.
  • How much pressure do I need? When taking a shower, you may want high water pressure, but it’s vital that the pressure isn’t so high that it damages your system. Pressure over 60 psi can damage your space's pipes, fittings, and appliances.
  • Where should it be installed? A booster pump should be installed on the main water line to provide increased water pressure to your entire home. Proper installation includes a bypass valve, so your home still receives water if the pump malfunctions. Trust A-Team Plumbing & Drain when you need expert booster pump repair and installation in Northford.

Booster Pump Repairs

There are multiple reasons your booster pump may need repair, and we’re here to help. The easiest way to prevent booster pump repairs is with annual maintenance that keeps it clean. 

Here are some common breakdowns and what causes them:

  • Losing pressure: A small leak like a running toilet or loose valve is a common cause of a pump losing pressure. If you have a clog, it can delay the sensor from noticing changes in water pressure, so your system becomes inefficient.
  • Age: It is common for a booster pump to last longer than the original motor. This system can last up to ten years but may need multiple replacement motors.
  • Reduced flow: A damaged booster pump can further reduce flow due to a collapsed suction hose, leaking gasket, or clog. We can test your pump by measuring the discharge pressure of the suction vacuum to determine the issue.
  • Pump failure: Like other fixtures, your booster pump is susceptible to mineral build-up that increases wear and tear over time while reducing energy efficiency. This common cause of pump failure can be avoided with maintenance. Undersized suction lines or a recurring clog can also cause failure.

  • Manny and his team showed up within 45 mins after placing a call. They tried to locate my septic tank but needed to return the next morning with larger equipment, they found my tank after digging and determine it had failed(over 60 years old). We agreed on a price to hook up to Sewers once CBYD and permits were done work
