The [Davies Pumps Jimmy 90 Booster Pump (JM90)](https://argondistributors.co.nz/product/jimmy-90-booster-pump/) is a mini booster pump designed to boost water pressure in a single line for domestic applications such as a shower.

The pump motor is an efficient close-coupled design with wet rotor for long and trouble-free service life. It is activated by an inline switch when the flow rate exceeds 1.5lpm.

One of the key features is the easy-to-clean inline filter which we show as follows;  
**Step #1**  
Remove the stainless steel filter pin located in the side of the filter housing.

**Step #2**  
Gently separate the clear plastic section from the white plastic section.
