It is rather difficult to determine the winner of the Rating in 2020 for the title of the best pump for increasing water pressure, since the pace of private housing construction outstrips the construction of central water supply and sewerage. Developers have to independently solve the water supply problem and develop underground sources located between the aquifers.
In 2020, the demand for devices of this kind did not decrease, but increased, hence the industrial expansion of the range. It became even more difficult to determine the TOP-10 of the best, and the list of proposals has grown significantly.
Main selection criteria
The best pumps to boost water pressure in 2020 fall into two common categories - surface pumps and pumping stations. Both those and other representatives of industrial lines are volatile and operate on electric motors - that is, they need electricity to work.
The rating of the best pumps for water supply is compiled taking into account the following requirements:
- the power of the electric motor, on which both the performance of the unit and its guaranteed durability in operation directly depend;
- the preferred type, depending on the existing conditions, is a surface device or a more versatile pumping station;
- throughput, for which there are certain standards - for a private or apartment building, a country house, depending on existing needs;
- the maximum head, which is calculated by summing the horizontal length of the pipeline and dividing it by 10 (this is done for a more rational consumption of funds, since there is no point in buying a device with a large margin where you can get by with the established limit;
- the reputation of the manufacturer is considered an important circumstance - this gives certain guarantees to the buyer;
- the price mark plays a role in budget construction, when the developer is limited in funds and wants to purchase a relatively high-quality thing that meets his financial resources.
The 2020 ranking is compiled taking into account all the components, which were joined by the numbers of the most frequent sales in this industry line. However, customer demand does not always take into account the required parameters. It is sometimes focused on the price component (perfectionists prefer the most expensive devices that guarantee, in their subjective opinion, the best quality), people with a modest budget prefer inexpensive units. Sometimes a customer is confused by an intrusive advertisement. Therefore, the presented rating of the winners takes into account the opinion of those who are already operating the pump and saw its advantages and disadvantages and the authoritative conclusions of industrial experts on products in this area.
TOP-10 pumps for increasing water pressure
The pros and cons of the devices are determined by the above criteria, but this list is not a strong recommendation for purchasing and not edifying instructions of choice.Each buyer must independently determine the appropriate type of pump, and if he was not engaged in the arrangement of the water source and sewage equipment, it is better for him to consult with specialists.
They will tell you the necessary subtleties - for example, to supply warm water to a residential or functional room, you may need to know the maximum temperature at which the acquisition can work. Sometimes the operating temperature plays a huge role in determining the suitability of the pump you are purchasing.

Thermal protection, excellent filtration and a stainless steel body ensure a long and fruitful uptime for the owner. It can even pass water of not very good quality. Recognized as a good combination of price and parameters.
Pros:
- unpretentious and easy to use;
- practically inaudible;
- solid assembly and guaranteed durability of service;
- great price.
Minuses:
- not marked.
An excellent sample from Russian developers, the winner of the consumer demand and demand rating.
It is difficult to determine what the best pump for water will be if you do not know the specifics of the structure and area of residence of the developer. For private houses and even apartment buildings located in places of shallow occurrence of water layers, the subject of preference may be a surface one - a relatively silent device of small dimensions, which cuts into a pipeline located at a short distance.
The pumping station is a modern but noisy device that works in automatic mode and is recommended for installation in country houses or cottage villages where there is no central water supply. This is a more expensive purchase, which pays off quickly enough and solves the problem of supplying water with a good pressure for the owners even from deep artesian wells.
