Product Overview
The Davey BT14-30 is an automatic clean-water pressure-boosting system that combines a 1 HP stainless steel pump with the Torrium2 controller. It is designed to improve usable pressure where a home, storage-tank supply, garden system, or light irrigation layout does not receive enough pressure from the existing water source. As taps or irrigation outlets open, the controller starts the pump automatically; when demand stops, it shuts the pump down without requiring a separate manual switch.
The Torrium2 controller also provides operating safeguards for conditions such as dry running, excessive temperature, and rapid cycling, but correct system sizing and installation remain essential. Select this pump by the flow required at the desired delivery pressure after accounting for elevation, suction conditions, pipe length, pipe diameter, fittings, and other system losses—not by maximum flow alone. Before ordering, confirm the clean-water source, available 115V single-phase supply, inlet and outlet connections, priming arrangement, required pressure, and complete duty point. Follow the Davey BT Series instructions for piping, electrical connection, controller setup, and commissioning.
