Regular maintenance and proactive checks on everyday appliances such as washing machines and water purifiers can help prevent unexpected issues.
Washing Machine
During the rainy season, washing machines become a household’s best friend, thanks to their spin-dry function that helps dry clothes faster. However, a common issue with these appliances is weak water flow, which affects the machine’s overall efficiency. When faced with this problem, the first step is to inspect the inlet and outlet valves for any debris or buildup that might be obstructing the water flow. Subsequently, cleaning the pipes can help increase the water pressure to the washing machine.
If the water flow remains weak even after addressing these issues, it’s time to consider a pressure booster pump to increase the water pressure for your washing machine.
Water Purifier
Water is essential for our health, but simply drinking the recommended 1.5-2 liters per day doesn’t guarantee optimal health. The quality of your household water supply could be a concern, as it may contain harmful elements.
To address this, most families invest in a water purifier to remove heavy metals such as lead, mercury, iron, and manganese, as well as harmful bacteria and viruses such as E.Coli, Coliform, Rotavirus, and Poliovirus.
However, water purifiers can sometimes encounter issues, such as intermittent operation. This could be due to low water pressure, either from a low reservoir or a direct connection to the municipal water supply. In such cases, the water pressure may not be sufficient to fully close the low-pressure valve. To fix this, you can either raise the water reservoir or use a supporting pump to increase the water pressure.
Booster Pump
With limited land availability, urban housing options are often confined to high-rise apartments or narrow multi-story houses. As a result, most households rely on municipal water suppliers. However, during peak hours, the water pressure in these pipes can be insufficient to meet the demands of multiple households.
While a high-lift pump might seem like a solution, it may not be effective for appliances like washing machines, water heaters, or showerheads, which still experience weak water flow.
This is where a pressure booster pump comes in handy. It directly pushes water from the supply pipe into the reservoir, ensuring a stable water supply even at the highest floors of a building. Additionally, it increases water pressure for appliances that require it.

Families can choose a suitable pump based on their technical specifications.
Depending on your needs, you can opt for a 125W or 200W pressure booster pump. It’s advisable to install a temperature-sensitive relay to prevent the pump from overheating during continuous operation. When comparing pump specifications, pay attention to the unit of measurement for the flow rate (per minute or per hour). Additionally, consider the height from the water reservoir to the point of use and select a pump with a suction height that exceeds this distance by 3 to 5 meters to compensate for friction loss during pumping.
To maintain aesthetics and minimize noise disruptions, carefully consider the pump’s installation location.
