Abstract

A pressure boosting system and a method of using the same to increase fluid pressure in a fluid distribution system are disclosed. The pressure boosting system may be installed 'in-line' with the fluid distribution system. The pressure boosting system includes a submersible pump and a controller that may be configured to control the submersible pump based on an outlet pressure if inlet pressure is below a threshold. The pressure boosting system may also control the submersible pump based on a flow of the fluid through a pump unit as a function of the inlet pressure. A mounting bracket may be moveably coupled to a tank of the pressure boosting system.
