Water Boosting System
The water authorities are only obliged to provide a pressure of 0.7 bar and 9 litres per minute to the boundary of your property. People who experience anything more than this pressure should understand that they are very fortunate. It is necessary therefore to increase the water pressure in certain areas where either the property pipe work is extremely restrictive or the property is significantly elevated and the water main pressure cannot overcome the static head pressure. Unless in extreme circumstances (usually fire systems), you are not allowed to install an inline pressure pump that pulls directly from the main. - Instead you have to install a small break or water storage tank with a suitable air gap and overflow to avoid back washing into the authority main. From this tank you can boost the water to the required pressure and flow rate to the property.
