Salamander Pumps

Salamander Pumps, manufacturer of water boosting solutions in the United Kingdom

Salamander Pumps presents itself as one of the leading British manufacturers of water boosting products. From its site in Sunderland, the team has been developing solutions to improve water pressure and flow in homes for over 30 years. The company states that, since its beginnings, its aim has been to deliver Smarter Water Performance, with products that increase pressure and flow throughout the home using cutting-edge technology.

Product ranges

The catalogue is organised into two main families: Gravity Booster and Mains Booster, as well as accessories and the AquaScan tool.

Gravity Booster

Designed for homes with a gravity-fed water system, which often suffer from low pressure or want to increase shower pressure. It includes the following series:

• Ora: boosts the performance of a single thermostatic shower.
• CT Xtra: boosts a thermostatic shower or a hot or cold tap.
• CT Bathroom: specifically designed to meet the demand for water within the bathroom.
• CT Force: robust and reliable pumps, with brass ends and impellers.
• Right Pump: premium plastic pump range, with the most powerful performance for the whole house.

Mains Booster

Solutions to overcome low mains water pressure and flow in homes, whether they have a combi boiler or an unvented cylinder. The range includes:

• TapBoost: an easy to install, quiet and cost-effective solution to boost poor water flow to a single tap, toilet, dishwasher or washing machine, raising it to between 7 and 11 l/min depending on the incoming flow.
• HomeBoost: an intelligent inline mains booster pump that boosts the incoming mains water supply to the whole house up to 12 litres per minute.
• AccuBoost: accumulation vessels that provide greater water flow in properties with an insufficient mains supply.
• TankBoost: allows multiple outlets, across multiple floors, to be boosted at the same time in a mains-fed system. The TankBoost 5.0 Bar version, presented as a new addition, provides up to 120 l/min, allowing more outlets to be boosted simultaneously and meeting demand in larger applications.

AquaScan: portable water performance measurement

AquaScan is a 4-in-1 handheld digital tool designed to precisely measure water flow, pressure, temperature and hardness (indicated via TDS). It is aimed at installers.

Product selection and technical support

The company offers a product selector which, by entering the system type and outlet usage, identifies the most suitable solution. For specifiers, Salamander Pumps provides specification support services and a site specification form. Customer support covers pre-installation, installation and post-installation, with guides, manuals, videos, FAQs and help with warranty registration. It also makes it easy to find stockists and installers, as well as a list of accredited online retailers.

Customer profile

The site organises its content and services into three audiences: householders, installers and specifiers. For householders, the focus is on improving water pressure and flow; for installers, on measurement tools, training and technical support; and for specifiers, on documentation and support for project specification.

Presence and activity

Salamander Pumps operates from its site in Sunderland and sells its products in the United Kingdom. The company maintains its own online shop and a loyalty programme, and publishes case studies, news and testimonials. Its commitment to corporate social responsibility appears as a prominent section on the site.
