Are you tired of struggling with a shower that provides a trickle of water rather than a flow? Does it take ages to run a bath? Does your electric shower cut out when someone flushes the toilet or turns on a tap? All of these could be symptoms of low water pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can test your water pressure by using a one- or two-litre measuring jug, turning a tap on full and simply seeing how long the jug takes to fill. From this, you can then calculate the flow in litres per minute \u2013 as a rough guide, a figure under ten means that you have low pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your water pressure is low, there are a number of things you can do about it. A Home Booster Pump<\/a><\/span> can help significantly boost the pressure to the whole house. Or if you\u2019re just having problems with the shower, a Shower Pump could be the solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Home Booster Pump<\/a><\/span> is fitted to the mains supply and can improve the pressure to the whole house, so you\u2019ll benefit in the kitchen as well as the bathroom. On the other hand, a Shower Pump boosts the flow to an individual outlet. This can ensure you enjoy a powerful shower, as well as helping with filling the bath or ensuring that the toilet cistern fills quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a range of home booster pumps<\/a><\/span> available to buy online from Pump Sales Direct, which can help increase your water pressure and ensure you get a great shower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before fitting a Home Booster Pump or Shower Pump, it\u2019s important to understand the type of system you have – whether it\u2019s an older property with a gravity-fed system – with a cold-water tank in the loft and a hot-water cylinder – or a more modern system with a combi-boiler. These have different requirements for pumps, so if you\u2019re not sure, then consult a qualified plumber or give the expert team at Pump Sales Direct a call for advice on your purchasing the right pump: 08453 664 754<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \n <\/div>\n\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Are you tired of struggling with a shower that provides a trickle of water rather than a flow?…","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":1995,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[56,58,41,135,2],"tags":[11,3,8],"class_list":["post-25","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-qa","category-heating-solutions","category-home-booster-pumps","category-homeowners","category-shower-pumps","tag-home-booster","tag-shower-pumps","tag-water-pressure","cs-entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pumpsalesdirect.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pumpsalesdirect.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pumpsalesdirect.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pumpsalesdirect.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pumpsalesdirect.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.pumpsalesdirect.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pumpsalesdirect.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1995"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pumpsalesdirect.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pumpsalesdirect.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pumpsalesdirect.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
