12V DC RO Booster Pump

Residential RO Pumps: Typically last 2–5 years.

Commercial/Industrial RO Pumps: Can last 5–10 years, depending on usage, water quality, and maintenance.

• Water quality (sediment, hardness, contaminants)

• Operating pressure and frequency

• Preventive maintenance (filter changes, lubrication, etc.)

Consider repairing your RO pump if you notice:

• Increased noise, but the pump still runs

• Reduced water pressure or flow rate

• Overheating motor without total failure

• Minor leaks or loose fittings

• Replace O-rings, seals, or gaskets

• Clean the inlet/outlet ports or filter screens

• Replace motor brushes or bearings

• Tighten fittings and check wiring

It’s time to replace your RO pump if:

• The motor has burned out completely

• There is visible corrosion, cracks, or serious leakage

• The same issues keep returning even after repairs

• The pump is more than 5 years old and underperforming

• Repair costs approach the price of a new unit

• Use a sediment pre-filter to protect the pump

• Flush the RO system regularly to reduce scale buildup

• Avoid running the pump dry

• Monitor voltage and pressure regularly

• Check for leaks or unusual sounds quarterly
