Purchasing a Booster Pump
A booster pump is a device that is used to enhance water pressure in a system. In buildings with multiple floors, water pressure may decrease during high-consumption periods. To solve this problem, it is necessary to use systems and products designed to increase water pressure. A single pump may be sufficient for a single unit but for buildings with multiple units, one pump alone cannot meet the demand, and a booster pump system, made of several pumps, is necessary.
 
 Functions of a Booster Pump
Booster pumps comprise multiple pumps in parallel. When the system faces low water pressure, the first pump starts its operation. If the desired pressure is achieved, the booster pump stops and the system shuts down but if the pressure is still low, the subsequent pumps are activated. This process continues until the required pressure is obtained. The order, in which the pumps operate, follows a sequence set by the technician.
 
 Types of Booster Pumps
Water Supply Booster Pump
This booster pump is applied to enhance water pressure and resolve any deficiency in pressure. According to the aforementioned content, it consists of several pumps in parallel. Water supply booster pumps are available in two types, namely fixed-speed and variable-speed.
 
 Fixed-Speed Water Supply Booster Pump
This type of booster pump comes in two forms. One is equipped with a smart component known as a PLC or changeover system, which keeps a history of the pumps and turns them on or off at scheduled intervals, ensuring equal wear across the pumps. The second form lacks this smart system. The key benefit of this type of pump is its maximum efficiency in a short time.
 
 Variable-Speed Water Supply Booster Pump
Variable-speed booster pumps offer advantages such as lower wear and reduced energy consumption which should be taken into consideration in purchases. These pumps gradually and steadily increase water pressure.
  
Uses of Water Supply Booster Pumps

Hotels and airports
Hospitals
Residential complexes and communities
Tall buildings
Farms and agricultural fields

 
Firefighting Booster Pump
Firefighting booster pumps are specially designed to supply adequate water pressure for extinguishing fires and are only offered in fixed-speed configurations.
In general, a booster pump is a system of several electric pumps arranged in parallel and mounted on a frame along with other components.
 In areas where the public water supply system is weak, such as in industrial parks, high-rise buildings, and large commercial spaces, booster pumps ensure the necessary water pressure for firefighting.
 
 Firefighting booster pumps are critical for emergency situations to maintain adequate water pressure for extinguishing fires, as traditional firefighting systems may not be able to cover large-scale emergencies effectively. Nowadays, fire booster pump systems are crucial for all high-rise buildings and large commercial or office spaces. Failure to do so can lead to penalties from local authorities.
 
 Differences between booster pumps and regular pumps
If you are aiming to fix low water pressure in a single unit or a small group of units, a regular pump with the appropriate capacity can work but for larger buildings such as apartment complexes, hotels, and hospitals, a single pump won’t suffice, and a booster pump is necessary to meet the needs of multiple units and users.
