Flow and Pressure
There is a Davey Home Pressure System to suit virtually every home and budget. Choosing the most appropriate model for your application depends on a number of factors:

• How much water will be required?
  This is often considered in terms of the number of taps or outlets that are likely to be on at the one time.
• How much pressure will be needed?
  Pumping through long runs of piping or to elevated places such as multi-story buildings requires more pressure than flat sites or compact plumbing systems.

The following chart is a quick guide to selecting a Davey Home Pressure System to suit your flow and pressure requirements. Reference to the detailed product information on the following tables will enable you to select the type of pump and control system that best matches your particular situation.

The Torrium® delivers flow-on benefits
It's not easy living with water pressure problems. Poor or inconsistent water pressure can result in a broad range of problems, especially where the pump is the sole source of pressure to the household. Plus, no-one wants their pump cycling overnight because of a drop in water pressure. That's why Davey invented the extremely clever Torrium® Pressure System Controller. Five years in the making and thousands of hours of world-wide, in the field testing have culminated in a Pressure System Controller that can actually think for itself. The Torrium® can automatically adapt to changing conditions-because it has an in-built titanium mounted 'brain' that can out-smart everyday problems. It also means there are fewer installation and maintenance issues. This unique ability to respond to changing circumstances ensures a steady, reliable flow of water is virtually guaranteed day after day, year after year.

• CONSTANT FLOW
  With a Torrium® system you'll hardly notice the pump start. Better still, while you are using water, say in the shower, the pump doesn't cycle, overcoming those annoying temperature and pressure changes.
• Loss OF PRIME PROTECTION
  If you run out of water, the last thing you need is a pump that continues to run without water. The Torrium® detects a loss of water supply (prime) and shuts the system down. What's more it will Auto retry to re-establish prime if possible and Auto-restart on water flow return.
• ADAPTIVE PRESSURE SWITCH
  Torrium® measures the system pressure and adapts the cut-in pressure according to circumstances, thus providing a more reliable system with improved comfort and convenience.
• SIMPLIFIED FAULT FINDING
  Torrium® is equipped with a status indicator to make system fault finding quicker and more accurate. Torrium® can tell you if you have a slow filling toilet cistern, a loss of prime, a slow leak, low supply voltage, water over-temperature, even if someone has tried to override the Torrium® protection system.
• AUTO RETRY
  Auto retry in Torrium® allows the system to reset itself after a loss of prime, thus helping reduce system downtime.
• LOW PRESSURE DROP
  Torrium® has been designed to get the most from your pump, including pressure. The Torrium® has a very low water pressure loss through it, so that you can get the best performance at your outlets. Torrium® is available complete as part of a Davey Home Pressure System or can be purchased separately to upgrade an existing pump.

Davey Jet Pump Home Pressure Systems
For many years, Davey jet assisted centrifugal home pressure systems have been the benchmark for reliable household pressure. Jet Pumps are an excellent and robust choice, especially for smaller systems up to 35 litre's per minute, or for larger systems with long suction lines or suction lifts. Davey Jet Pumps have excellent wear resistance and air handling ability, contributing to their well earned reputation for reliability.
