Measuring the water flow is an important step in choosing the right pump. Water flow rate is measured in litres per minute (L/min). Next, cut and remove a section of the pipe. The size of this section will depend on your method of connection.

For instance, a whole home pump (e.g. CTForce 30PT) can power a shower alone, but a shower only pump (e.g. CT50 Xtra) can NOT power a cistern, taps, whole house etc. The Right Pumps 75TU pump is compatible with whole house applications, such as a bath, electric shower, wash basin, and washing machine.

Are There Any Specific Maintenance Requirements for the Homeboost Pump?Accumulator Tanks can offer even more flow than an inline pump, delivering up to 36 litres per minute. The AccuBoost range of accumulator tanks store water at pressure in the vessel and release this water into the system when there is demand in the property. They are available in a range of different tanks sizes, depending on your requirements, how many outlets you want to run at once and what space you have available in the property. Selected models will fit into a standard kitchen cupboard.

It’s important to note that the Water Supply and Fittings Regulations state that you can only pump the mains up to 12 litres a minute, so this pump is designed to switch off if your flow rate exceeds this and is therefore designed for circumstances where the mains water pressure is extremely low. There are still solutions available to households that need a higher flow rate than this, but they involve storing mains water, so take up significant space. This means that you can say goodbye to water pressure problems and hello to fast-filling baths, powerfully refreshing showers, and a great combi-boiler performance to boot. Plus, the Salamander HomeBoost is really quiet — at 46dB that's quieter than a kettle!If so, you need the Salamander HomeBoost — an intelligent pump that boosts your mains water pressure.
