I am using a pressure pump from the aquactec. The pressure on the membrane is 85psi. I checked pressure after pressure regulator and no pressure. I am getting water out of the DI. The pressure switch isn't working to shut off the pump. How do I also know if the float switch works?

I would simply raise the float and see if the system turns off. Once you raise the float the pressure should increase and the increase will trigger the booster pump to turn off.

Ok, I raised the float and it takes awhile but pressure does buildup. Maybe i should lower the pressure of the switch?
