I have a booster pump and a 90 GPD RODI unit. On the supply line I have a leak detector that can shut off the water in case of a leak. Do I want to install the booster before or after the leak detector?


My booster has a pressure switch and adjustment to shut it off in a high pressure situation. I just am not sure if the unit would shut itself off if the water supply was shut off as the pressure would be zero at that point.


Due to that info, I think the booster needs to be the first device on the supply line, but looking for opinions from the rest who use the boosters?
 
You're correct; you'd want the pump before the leak detector.
