  In the video for the booster pump about 3:45 minutes in he talks about Pre Filter Strainers to add before your booster pump to keep larger particles out of the booster pump. I can't find these on your site, do you sell them? Or where can I get them? Thanks.

  Bulk Reef Supply Hey Michael,
  At the moment we don't have them and I don't think there is anyone else that is carrying them. In most situations they aren't necessary though as they are very coarse filter mostly just for really large particles like sand.

  Just bought a booster pump from you guys before I moved. Current location has a constant 58 psi. When I turn the pump on it spikes to over a 100psi. Is there a way I can adjust it down to the 70 psi that's recommended with my 150gpd dual DI system.

  Bulk Reef Supply Hey Joe,
  The top of the booster pump has a small Allen wrench screw. This adjusts a pressure bypass and while is generally not needed to be adjusted, this is exactly the situation where you would want to adjust that. That will lower the pressure out of the booster pump to a safe level (anything under 80 is fine).

  Is the pressure adjustment from the hex screw on the top of the pump?

  Bulk Reef Supply Hey Dale,
  The hex screw on the top of the pump adjust the pressure bypass. This is the adjustment that would be used to decrease the pressure coming out of the pump if the pressure is too high. Unless your pressure is over the limit of your RO unit I wouldn't suggest changing it though.
