What Is a Pressure Pump and Why Do You Need One?
A pressure pump, also known as a booster pump, is designed to draw water from a tank and deliver it at a consistent pressure to taps, showers, toilets, and appliances. Unlike mains water, which is pressurised by the council network, tank water relies on a pump to ensure flow and pressure throughout your plumbing system.
A pressure pump for water tank is essential if:
- You use rainwater or bore water stored in a tank as your main or backup supply
- Your tank is located below the home or garden (no gravity flow)
- You experience low water pressure inside your home
- You want to connect your tank water to irrigation, toilets, or laundry systems
Whether for full household supply or just selected systems like the garden or toilets, the right pressure pump makes all the difference in performance and reliability.
Types of Pressure Pumps for Water Tanks
We assess your tank size, plumbing layout, elevation, and water usage to recommend the most suitable pump. Citywide Plumbing can help you select the right pump for your setup. Common options include:
Jet Pumps
Ideal for above-ground installations, jet pumps are reliable and cost-effective. They’re commonly used in rural and lifestyle properties.
Submersible Pumps
Installed inside the tank, these pumps are quiet and energy-efficient. They’re suitable where noise is a concern or space is limited.
Multistage Pumps
Best for larger homes or multi-level dwellings, multistage pumps provide strong, even pressure to multiple outlets simultaneously.
Variable Speed Pumps
These advanced systems adjust pump speed based on demand, delivering smooth pressure while saving energy and reducing wear.
