OK I was reading a thread the other day and it mentioned the Grundfos
home booster pump and another make, which was out of my price range,
and they seemed to be just what I was looking for to boost the
pressure to the shower upstairs. I have now bought the Grundfos.
Couple of questions if I may as no fitting instructions included,
suppose it meant to be straight forward but forgive the ignorance.
1, it looks to me like I need a 15mm - 1/2" tap connector to screw
onto the fittings they supply.


I don't know why Grunfos supply those fittings, they're just confusing.

I may have these details a bit wrong because Norm next door *gave* me
the bits, but here goes.

The pump comes with a 3/4 bsp thread, they supplu adapters to 1/2 bsp,
so you need a 1/2 bsp to 15mm compression convertor.

Then you go back up to 22mm.

OR

get 3/4 bsp to 22mm compression convertors and nail it straight in.

I hope the pump is powerful enough for a shower, it works a treat for my
kitchen sink, and is totally silent.
