Don't know how true this is but.. When I last phoned pure freedom, we got chatting about booster pumps and the guy I spoke to said most pumps with a tank tend to rust inside?
Spend a bit more mate and get one that will last  :)

They are hydraulic hoses, I got them from http://www.bmiuk.co.uk/ or you could try http://www.pirtek.co.uk/
Previously I used reinforced clear pvc hose and the water pressure from the booster pump blew a hole through it!  : ;D

i use a 300 RO  do most water production in kitchen, at the moment im using a diaphram pump 1.2 lpm  125psi,   it takes around 1 hour to fill a 25 litre drum,   i need a pump tp make more quicker,  im hoping to store it,  can these pumps run from the kitchen tap straight to pump, im not using much at this moment but will be using more soon when i know i can get a good supply. have any of you a link for the connections to fit into the RO so i can add a hosepipe onto it  instead of 1/4  RO tubong   prefferably a straight one.  ive tried looking for the connections to to washing machine cold water hose,   if you know what i mean,  looked on those 2 sites  cant see hoses Terry, how much was that pump,   mines cracking me up.

I can't answer your question, but all the literature thats come with any pump i've had specifies 1 inch pipe so i've always done that even if just for a short length.

this is the one that runs my business Richy

Window washers - Does yours cut in and out or maintain a steady pressure? Mine cuts in at 3 bar & cuts out at 6 bar, I would prefer if it just ran about 5 bar constantly.
