Smart Buddie
Installation, Operation & Maintenance Guide
Thank you for purchasing an Aquatic Life Smart Buddie Booster Pump.
When maintained properly, this unit will provide years of service.
OVERVIEW
Booster pumps are used to increase the water
pressure against the membrane and increase
the efficiency of the reverse osmosis (RO) unit.
The Smart Buddie Booster Pump does more
than just increase water pressure though,
it also flushes the membrane to prolong its
life and shuts off the pump when the filtered
water line is shut off.
There are additional features to the Smart
Buddie, so please review this entire guide to
understand the benefits and requirements.
WARNING:
carefully before proceeding with
installation. Your failure to follow
any attached instructions and
operating parameters may lead
to the product's failure.
For technical assistance or
warranty issues, contact Aquatic Life at
