Pros
- Holds a set pressure from 22 to 80 psi, so flow stays steady as taps open
- Pressure tank and outlet check valve are built in, so it installs as one unit
- Stops itself on running dry, overheating, blockage or a pipe leak
- Handles water up to 175 F, so it can sit on a hot line
Cons
- No warranty term in the listing
- Costs well over twice what similar generic inverter boosters sell for
