What It Is & Where It's Used

Water booster pump systems increase water pressure when municipal supply is insufficient for a building's needs. These systems typically include multiple pumps, pressure tanks, controls, and variable frequency drives (VFDs) for efficient operation and consistent pressure.

Essential in high-rise residential and commercial buildings, hospitals, hotels, and any facility where water must travel significant vertical distances. Also used in irrigation systems and industrial processes requiring consistent pressure.

Common Failures & Warning Signs

Low water pressure on upper floors
Pressure fluctuations during peak usage
Pumps cycling on/off rapidly (short cycling)
VFD faults or error codes
Pressure tank waterlogged or failed
Check valve failures causing backflow
Motor overheating or electrical issues
Excessive noise or vibration

How We Diagnose & Fix It

1

Pressure Mapping

Document pressure at multiple points throughout building.

2

System Analysis

Review pump curves, demand calculations, and control settings.

3

Component Testing

Test pumps, VFDs, sensors, and pressure vessels.

4

Detailed Estimate

Provide repair or upgrade recommendations with costs.

5

Professional Repair

Execute repairs with minimal disruption to water service.

6

Performance Verification

Confirm consistent pressure at all floors and fixtures.

Typical turnaround is up to ~2 weeks after inspection and estimate approval.

Maintenance Recommendations

Monthly pressure and flow verification
Quarterly VFD and control inspection
Check pressure tank pre-charge annually
Inspect check valves and isolation valves
Review motor current and temperature
Test backup/redundancy systems

Booster systems serve entire buildings - a failure affects every tenant. Preventive maintenance contracts ensure reliable operation year-round.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is water pressure low on upper floors?

This typically indicates undersized pumps, failing equipment, or control issues. We can diagnose and correct the problem.

How often should booster pumps be serviced?

We recommend quarterly inspections for commercial systems and annual comprehensive service at minimum.

Can you upgrade our existing booster system?

Yes, we frequently upgrade older constant-speed systems to modern VFD-controlled systems for better efficiency and pressure control.

What causes pumps to short cycle?

Common causes include pressure switch issues, small pressure tank, check valve leaks, or system leaks. We identify and fix the root cause.
