What is the best operating pressure for my booster pump and storage tank?
The operating pressure of a booster pump system should be chosen according to the water pressure that the piping network system within the house can withstand. Normally, plumbing fixtures are designed to handle water pressure upto 3-4 bar. If the pressure is in excess of this, plumbing fixtures and appliances could be damaged, and pressure reducing valves are required. Please contact your plumber/plumbing consultant to find out the maximum pressure your piping network can handle and set the booster pump system to operate at that level accordingly.
