Feedback

If your water supply is from a well or the water supply pressure is below 50 psi, then it is recommended that you add this pump kit to your RO system setup to increase the water supply pressure to 60 to 80 psi range to optimize the performance of your RO system. PLEASE MAKE SURE your RO system is in working condition, and it can make water and turn on/off correctly. If your RO system is not working correctly or not making water, then you need to fix the RO system and replace filters. This pump is not able to fix a non-working RO system. Quiet operation, 1 year factory warranty. Made in USA pump and pressure switch.
This pump kit includes Aquatec pump 6840-2J03-B224 with heavy duty steel base plate with damper, PSW-240 pressure switch, transformer 110V USA plug, 1/4" inlet/outlet for pump and pressure switch, detail instruction
This pump is designed to increase the water supply pressure to a RO water system. Increase input pressure from 30-40 psi to 60-80 psi depending on the capacity of your RO system. This pump is good for under 100 GPD (gallons per day) RO systems Most home drinking RO systems are under 100 GPD
Automatic ON/OFF operation. The pressure switch would sense the pressure in the output line, so when the output line is shut off or the storage tank is full or reaches 40-50 psi, the pump would shut off, and then when you start using water and tank pressure drops, then the pump turns back ON to replenish the tank.
This kit DOES NOT come with the optional (ESO) Electric-Shut-Off solenoid valve, so it would reply on your existing mechanical auto-shut-off valve in your RO system to turn off the water supply when the tank is full. For most systems this kit will work fine.
This kit is NOT for misting, ice maker line, line boosting, water transfer. This pump kit is designed for increasing water supply pressure to a RO water system
FAQ: If your RO system is not working, not able to make water, not able to turn on/off correctly, then this pump will NOT help. This pump is not able to fix a non-working RO
FAQ: The pressure switch may need adjustment after install. If the pump does not shut off after the tank is full. That may indicated the mechanical shut off valve in your RO system is interfering with the pressure switch.
FAQ: Please contact our tech support through Amazon messages if you have issues with the setup. It is impossible to have defective product.

Title: This pump fixed my 5-Stage Reverse Osmosis (RO) System
Review: I purchased the Aquatec 6800 Booster Pump Kit for my 50 GPD 5-Stage Reverse Osmosis system, along with an Electric Shutoff Switch (ESO).Before, my feed pressure into the RO system was between 30 and 40 psi, which wasn't enough to push water into the holding tank. I was constantly running out of water, and it was really frustrating.I tried everything: changing filters, replacing the membrane, and even getting a new backflow valve. But it became clear that the pressure was just too low for the system to run properly. Adding this pump was super easy with the provided instructions. Now, my pressure gauge shows about 60 psi, and I haven’t run out of water since. The water pressure coming out of the spigot is also much higher, making it quick to fill up a pitcher.The Electric Shutoff Switch is a great addition too. It lets the system "rest" between cycles and stops it from continuously wasting water like before. The pump is very quiet, and with the sink cupboard doors shut, I can't hear it at all when it comes on.This has been the perfect fix for my RO system, and my whole family loves the fresh, clean water.

Title: Amazing
Review: This pump works wonderfully. I have had an RO system on every house we have owned since 1998. The last house had good pressure, being on the city water, but now we live where we have our own well. The pressure registers between 26 and 30 psi. Needless to say, that is not enough pressure for an RO system to work efficiently, if it all. This pump not only works well, but the pressure at the tap is greater than it ever was when we were on city water. I highly recommend this pump. And the shutoff works well, too!

Title: If you have a well, you will most likely need this for your Reverse Osmosis System
Review: Our well pump puts out between 30-40 lbs of pressure on the intake side, down to about 20 lbs before it hit the Reverse Osmosis filter, which isn't quite enough to keep the Reverse Osmosis System running well. This pump works great so far on keeping our system pressurized to about 60 lbs at the Reverse Osmosis Filter.It's not extremely loud, but it's not exactly quiet either. Mounting it to a solid surface keeps the vibration down though and decreases the noise. There are several videos that show how to mount these pumps, the important part is there is a pressure sensor that plugs into this pump with a wiring connection. This pressure sensor needs to be plumbed on the water line feeding the actual Reverse Osmosis filter itself, AFTER the other filters. This pump is plumbed right BEFORE your first filter (usually the sediment filter) and pressurizes the whole Reverse Osmosis System.If you have 50 lbs of pressure or more in your water system, this is probably unnecessary. If you don't, I suggest getting this, its great for what it does.

Title: Works as intended, adjustable, but also a little noiser than other brands
Review: I added this booster pump to my home RO system to get more pressure on the inlet, with the ultimate goal of increasing flow rate on the output faucet. It worked in that regard, as do other booster pumps. I tried two different pumps. The benefit of this model is that it has an adjustment screw on the pump to adjust pressure boost and another on the pressure switch that turns it on/off. This is actually the main reason I tried this model, as other models don't always have these adjustment screws. In the end however, I did not end up adjusting, as the default range works in most cases so far. For my level of detail, even if I could adjust things a little, I don't think it wouldn't change much of the desired result. So, the adjustment wasn't a strict need. I read somewhere you aren't supposed to adjust the pump pressure while its running also, which kind of limits the whole trial and error ease of trying different pressures if I wanted to.The actual booster pump worked well. My inlet water pressure was about 40 psi, and when running this pump brought it up to 100psi by default. I installed a guage inline with the pump's output, which is essential. This 100psi was higher than another pump I tried that brought it up to 80psi. I installed a second guage inline right before the tank. This is also essential and honestly the more useful of the guage locations. By default this one reads whatever the tank psi is adjusted to, probably about 7-8 psi steady. Running the booster pump brings this up until the pressure switch turns it off. The most common case is 40/20 where it turns off when it rises to 40 and on again when it falls back to 20. With the booster pump running it slowly rose from 7 psi to 40 psi. This process took about 1 hour, from a "full" 7 psi tank. If you were doing this from no water, obviously longer. The weight of the holding tank noticably increased as it went to 40psi, though I'm not sure how much more water it added. Compared to the other pump that increased inlet to only 80psi, it seemed to get up to 40psi faster.The end result was the faucet flow rate noticably increased, significantly. It is faster when the level is at 40psi than at 20psi. And way better than the 7psi. Living alone, it takes about 2 days to drop from 40-20 psi, and the pump runs just 1hr. I'd rather it was a 30-40psi switch honestly. Or 30-50 I suppose, but I'm not sure if that would damage the tank bladder at that level.Finally, the reason I actually ended up not using this pump was because it was noiser than the other non-adjustable pump I tried. This pump has 4 little rubber feet at the bottom. However it still made a distinct pumping noise when running while the other was near silent. Additionally, the 1/4" water hoses noticably vibrated with this pump, such that anywhere they touched the cabinet wall, tank or one another would make a major rattling noise. I kept trying to carefully place them, but it was never right. I wish this all wasn't the case. There were also no mounting screw locations on the pump if I wanted to try that.

Title: Works exactly as described, quality made in USA
Review: A very high quality pump and pressure switch, performs exactly as advertised. I am on well water, and my under-sink 200gpd RO system for my fridge, ice maker, and instant-hot always suffered from low water output, despite a larger 5 gallon pressure tank. I couldn’t get more than 2/3 gallons at time before it lost pressure and the dispenser on my fridge slowed to a dribble. I installed the cutoff switch inline with my pressure tank, and left it at the factory setting of 40psi. As a note my input pressure to the pump is 40-60 psi, and regardless the pump boosted the pressure to 80psi at the RO stage 1 input. I purchased 2 extra $10 gauges so that I can monitor the input pressure and tank pressures. I recommend getting the gauges so you can optimize performance if your system. The pump itself is silent, with a nice vibration-isolating base. Very simple to install with a decent set of included instructions. You may need a couple feet of 1/4 in pex and various connectors to retrofit your existing setup, so order those at the same time (would have saved me a trip to the hardware store).

Customers say

Customers like the functionality, ease of installation, and value for money of the water pump. They mention it works well, is easy to mount on a vertical surface, and is well worth the price. Customers are also satisfied with the build quality. However, some customers disagree on the noise level, water pressure, shutoff, and vibration level.
