Booster Pump Systems in Western Canada
Get the Pressure and Flow Your System Needs.
Sego helps size and supply single- and multi-pump booster systems for low incoming pressure, long piping runs, elevation changes and water systems with changing demand.
Where a Booster Makes the Difference
Booster systems help when the available water supply cannot deliver the pressure required at the point of use.
Supply That Arrives Weak
Municipal or other incoming water may provide enough volume but not enough pressure for the fixtures, equipment or processes downstream.
What matters: Inlet pressure · Required pressure · Peak flow
A Long Run to a Shop, Barn or Outbuilding
Distance and piping friction can reduce pressure before water reaches remote buildings or equipment.
What matters: Pipe run · Friction loss · Required flow
Water That Has to Climb
Elevation requires additional pressure to move water uphill or serve higher points in a system.
What matters: Elevation change · Available pressure · Required pressure
A Building Where the Top Floor Is Starved
Pressure available at the building entrance may not be enough to serve upper floors reliably during peak demand.
What matters: Building height · Peak demand · Pressure target
Pressure Problem or Supply Problem?
A booster can add pressure. It cannot create water that the source cannot provide.
Enough Water, Not Enough Pressure
If the source can provide the required flow but pressure is too low because of elevation, distance or incoming conditions, a booster system may be the right approach.
A booster may help.
Not Enough Water Available
If the well, municipal connection or storage source cannot provide the required flow, increasing pressure alone will not solve the underlying supply problem.
Source capacity or storage may need to be addressed first.
What Determines the Right Booster Pump System?
Booster sizing starts with the pressure and flow available at the inlet and what the system needs to deliver downstream.
01
Available Inlet Pressure
The pressure already available before the booster system begins adding pressure.
02
Required Flow
How much water the system needs to deliver when demand is highest.
03
Pressure Requirement
The pressure needed downstream after accounting for elevation and piping losses.
04
Demand & Redundancy
How demand changes and whether multiple pumps or backup capacity are required.
Booster Pump System Components
The right booster system brings the pump, controls, pressure management and protection together around the required operating point.
Single Booster Pumps
Increase pressure for smaller applications where one properly sized pump can meet demand.
Multi-Pump Booster Packages
Multiple pumps share demand and provide added capacity, redundancy and operating flexibility.
Variable-Speed Boosters
Adjust pump output as demand changes to maintain steadier pressure and reduce unnecessary operation.
Pressure Tanks & Vessels
Support system stability, reduce cycling and help manage changing water demand.
Controls & Protection
Sequencing, dry-run protection, fault alarms and controls help protect the complete booster system.
Packaged Booster Skids
Pre-assembled pump, piping and control packages built for streamlined installation and startup.
