Low water pressure is a very real problem for both residences and businesses alike. Water pressure, not to be confused with water flow at the tap, is simply the force that propels water through the piping system to reach fixtures in the building. People desire high water pressure for many different reasons and there are as many different ways to try to achieve it. One way is using a water pressure booster pump.

Water pressure results from several variables, including the height of the water reservoir, the elevation of the property or premise, the number of people occupying the premise that consume water as well as their consumption rates and the number of water fixtures (sink, toilet, etc.) within the premise.

Booster Pumps can be found in both residential and commercial properties, in large homes and small homes, in corner stores and big factories, in farms and in car washes. Some use boosters simply for comfort, while others rely on them to run a business or even for drinking water. Sta-Rite is one of the leading manufacturers of booster pumps. Let’s take a brief look at what sets Sta-Rite apart from the competition.
