  2. Booster pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booster_pump

    Booster pumps for household water pressure are usually simple electrically driven centrifugal pumps with a non-return valve. They may be constant speed pumps which switch on when pressure drops below the low pressure set-point and switch off when pressure reaches the high set-point, or variable speed pumps which are controlled to maintain a ...

  3. Pumping station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumping_station

    High service pumping of finished water at high pressure; Distributed system booster without a storage tank in the piping system; Water pumping stations are constructed in areas in which the demand or projected demand is reasonably defined, and is dependent on a combination of customer needs and fire flow requirements.

  4. Water distribution system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_distribution_system

    An example of a water distribution system: a pumping station, a water tower, water mains, fire hydrants, and service lines [1] [2]. A water distribution system is a part of water supply network with components that carry potable water from a centralized treatment plant or wells to consumers to satisfy residential, commercial, industrial and fire fighting requirements.

  5. Circulator pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulator_pump

    The traditional hot water recirculation system uses the existing cold water line as return line from the point of use located farthest from the hot water tank back to the hot water tank. The first of two system types has a pump mounted at the hot water heater while a "normally open" thermostatic control valve gets installed at the farthest ...

  6. Water supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_supply

    Gravity water has a small pressure (say 1 ⁄ 4 bar in the bathroom) so needs wide pipes to allow for higher flows. This is fine for baths and toilets but is frequently inadequate for showers. A booster pump or a hydrophore is installed to increase and maintain pressure. For this reason urban houses are increasingly using mains pressure boilers ...

  7. Hydraulic ram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_ram

    The device uses the water hammer effect to develop pressure that allows a portion of the input water that powers the pump to be lifted to a point higher than where the water originally started. The hydraulic ram is sometimes used in remote areas, where there is both a source of low-head hydropower and a need for pumping water to a destination ...
