Water booster pump skid

Any comments on this unit from Power Wash Store? Little Pricey. My booster seems to need help priming. If I was to pay this kind of money I wouldn't want that to be an issue

I looked at buying that skid, decided to build my own based on the design.

I've seen the units up close and personal. I've not heard of any priming issues with the boosters.

A priming problem with a booster is likely to be in the supply line....as an example, if the water supply isn't that great and you use a cheap supply hose then the supply hose can collapse. The booster just sucks too well to have a priming issue.

Usually water is pressurized. Chemicals in a 55 gallon tank not so much. I'm currently using the Ray Burke pump. Sometimes I have to prime it with the water to get it pulling

Andy,

Do you have any liquid around the shaft?

If the pump wont draw from the tank....it's time for a new pump.
This happens after a while or even to a new pump if you run it dry.
