Booster Set Servicing Frequently Asked Questions
What is a booster set and why do I need one in my home?
A booster set is a pump system that increases water pressure where the mains supply isn’t strong enough. In homes and residential blocks, booster sets are commonly used to ensure:
- Good shower pressure.
- Consistent water flow to upper floors.
- Reliable supply to multiple bathrooms or appliances.
If you experience low pressure, fluctuating flow, or weak showers, a booster set may already be installed or may be required.
How often should a domestic booster set be serviced?
For domestic properties, we recommend:
- Annual servicing for most homes.
- Six monthly servicing for larger houses or buildings with higher usage.
Regular servicing helps prevent breakdowns, noisy operation, leaks, and loss of pressure.
What happens if a booster set is not maintained?
Lack of maintenance can lead to:
- Pump failure.
- Loss of water pressure.
- Increased energy costs.
- Leaks and water damage.
- Hygiene and safety risks where water is stored.
Routine servicing is far more cost-effective than emergency repairs or full replacement.
Do domestic properties need water tank testing and cleaning?
If your property has a cold water storage tank (common in larger homes and blocks of flats), testing and cleaning is strongly recommended.
Over time, tanks can collect:
- Sediment and debris.
- Bacteria and biofilm.
- Rust or scale.
Regular inspection, cleaning and chlorination helps keep water safe and clear and reduces health risks.
What is chlorination and is it safe?
Chlorination is a controlled disinfection process used to kill bacteria inside water tanks and pipework.
- It is carried out using approved methods.
- Systems are flushed after treatment.
- Water is safe to use once completed.
Chlorination is commonly used after cleaning, repairs, or periods of low water usage.
My booster pump is noisy, is that normal?
Noisy operation often indicates:
- Worn bearings.
- Failing seals.
- Air in the system.
- Incorrect pressure settings.
Early investigation can prevent complete pump failure and reduce disruption.
Do you replace seals and bearings or just full pumps?
We carry out seal and bearing replacement wherever possible. This:
- Extends pump life.
- Reduces costs.
- Minimises downtime.
Full pump replacement is only recommended when repair is no longer viable.
