Booster pump starts often
A booster pump that starts very often can have leaks, incorrect pressure in tank or pressure switch issues. Frequent starts can wear the pump.
Possible causes
- missing air cushion in tank;
- broken tank membrane;
- incorrect pressure switch setting;
- faulty check valve;
- leak in installation or dripping tap.
What to observe
- starts without visible consumption;
- pressure rises and drops quickly;
- pump starts on every small tap opening;
- vibrations or unusual noises appear.
Useful photos
Send photos of the pump, tank, pressure switch, pressure gauge and pipe area. If there are leaks, photograph the affected point.
