As water utilities companies across the UK reduce their supply water pressures down to as little as 1 bar a problem that many householders and builders are now facing is reduced dynamic pressure and flows which in some cases can result in complete failure of the supply at times of peak demand.
The MAINSBOOST system acts as your own mini mains pumping station and reservoir resuscitating your system.

Applications
Domestic & Commercial applications can be sized according to peak flow requirements using an infinitely variable range of different capacity accumulators
Advantages of theMAINSBOOST
1. Mains water stored at pressure in a sealed MAINSBOOST no chlorination
2. No need for expensive pumps or conventional storage tanks.
3. Increased water volumes & flow.
4. No noticable drop in performamnce when additional outlets opened
5. Can run completly independantly of outside mains supply
6. Energy saving + No chlorination = Green Technology.
7.Water on demand under pressure
8. Balanced hot and cold water pressure throughout the building.
LOW Mains water flow rate or volume?
The installation of a MAINSBOOST system really does allow you to fit an un vented cylinder in any property irrespective of the water flow rate available from the main.
Fitting a MAINSBOOST system on to an incoming 15mm mains supply in will enable you to fit up to 28mm coming out of the MAINSBOOST cylinder into the property significantly increasing the flow to all outlets.
The MAINSBOOST will store cold mains water at the peak pressures available from the water main and will supplement the water main flow rate to cope with the peak flow required in the building; allowing all the water outlets to be used simultaneously.
Water pressure too low?
If the water pressure is too low this can be increased using a MAINSBOOSTCHARGER which is fitted into the incoming water main needs no break-tank like other water booster sets do; the flow rate has been reduced to 12 litres per min to comply with the current water regulations. This unit is approx 490mm high x 250mm wide x 240mm deep and is controlled by a micro-processor control unit and will generate up to 6 bar pressure, which is then stored in the accumulator.
Example
Peak flow rate demand from all water outlets in the building 50 litres per min.
Flow rate available from water main 20 litres per min.
Assume this demand is to supply 5 showers rated at 10 litres per min flow rate each for 5 mins; therefore a total of 100 litres of water available from the water main supplemented by a 310 accumulator with total storage capacity of 155 litres providing a total of main and accumulator of 255 litres.
MAINSBOOSTCHARGER
WANT TO PUMP DIRECTLY OFF THE MAINS WITH NO NEED FOR A BREAK TANK? In commercial applications where where the mains water supply pressure is inadequateThe MAINSBOOSTCHARGER unit is designed to be added to a Mainsboost system on the incoming mains water supply. The CHARGER will boost the mains supply up to a pressure of 2.5-3.0 bar in the MAINSBOOST
MAINSBOOST PLUS
WANT TO PUMP DIRECTLY OFF THE MAINS WITH NO NEED FOR A BREAK TANK? In residential applications where where the mains water supply pressure is inadequate the MAINSBOOSTPLUS unit is designed to be added to the incoming mains water supply. The MAINSBOOSTPLUSwill boost the mains supply up to a pressure of 2.5-3.0 bar. Ideal units for flats and houses where poor flows and pressures are a problem. Units available from 60 litres to 450 litres to suit expected peak demand in the property
