Grundfos 3.0 BAR home booster 240V MD300200
- Established 1975
- Trusted by thousands of customers
The Grundfos Home Booster MD300200 is a best-selling, complete, self-contained cold water boosting set designed for domestic properties with insufficient mains pressure. A high-quality stainless steel pump delivers 3.0 bar nominal pressure, controlled by the PM2 Pressure Manager on/off controller. The set includes an integral 200-litre storage tank (180L useable) with a Type AB air gap, an 8-litre integral pressure vessel, and all WRAS-approved components. Designed and built in the UK.
The PM2 controller provides pressure, pump status, and fault indicators with a reset button, and protects the pump against dry-run, air-lock, and seizure. For homes with 3–4 occupants or a slow-filling mains supply, an optional 180-litre slave tank is available to increase storage capacity. Choose the MD450200 for 4.5 bar nominal pressure (suited to 4–5 occupants).
Suitable for 1–2 standard bathrooms with typical fittings. Arrives as a packaged unit ready for installation. Recommended for utility room or garage installation on a solid level base. Not suitable for loft or attic spaces.

More about this product
The Grundfos 3.0 Bar Home Booster MD300200 is a self-contained cold water boosting system designed for domestic properties with low or inadequate mains pressure. It connects directly to the mains supply via a Type AB air gap — providing compliant backflow protection — and fills an integrated 200-litre storage tank from which the pump draws. No separate break tank is required.
The Grundfos PM2 Pressure Manager controller automatically starts and stops the pump on demand. An integrated 8-litre pressure vessel prevents short-cycling on small draw-offs. The system is suitable for properties with 1–2 bathrooms and typical household fittings.
Designed and built in the UK specifically for the domestic market, with a proven 10-year track record. Supplied as a complete packaged unit requiring only mains cold water supply, discharge pipe, overflow pipe, and electrical connections. Typically installed in a utility room or garage on a solid, level base. Not suitable for loft installation.
Three mains-connected booster systems available from Anglian Pumping Services — compared side by side.
Grundfos Home Booster 3.0 — the only direct mains system here (Type AB air gap). Proven UK-built unit, compact all-in-one footprint, no WiFi or smart features. If you need 4.5 bar instead, the Grundfos 4.5 bar model is also available.
WaterBoost Slimline 300 EXT — best value. Larger 300L tank, variable speed DAB Esybox pump, 80 l/min flow rate, WiFi and voice control — at the lowest price of the three.
DAB Esybox + Esytank — largest storage (480L) and most expandable. Best for high-demand or slow-filling-mains properties. Same DAB Esybox pump performance as the Slimline.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to common questions about the Grundfos 3.0 BAR home booster 240V MD300200. For technical specifications, see the product details above; for sizing or installation advice, contact our team. If you have any other questions, we're happy to help.
What is a mains pressure boosting system?
A mains pressure boosting system increases the pressure and flow of water from the incoming mains supply into a property. It typically combines a pump and a storage or expansion tank, drawing water from the mains and delivering it to taps, showers and appliances at a stronger, more consistent pressure. They are used where the incoming mains is too weak to serve modern outlets reliably.
When do I need a mains booster pump?
You normally need a mains booster if static mains pressure is below 1.5 to 2 bar, if showers run weakly when other taps are open, or if combi boilers struggle to deliver hot water. Anglian Pumping recommends checking static pressure at the stop tap before specifying a system, then choosing a model rated for the number of bathrooms and outlets in the property.
What size mains booster do I need for my home?
Sizing depends on the number of bathrooms, the type of fittings and the static mains pressure. As a guide, a 1 to 2 bathroom property with combi boiler or single shower often needs 1.6 to 3 bar boost. A 2 to 3 bathroom property typically needs 3 to 4.5 bar with an integral break tank. Larger homes need a tank-and-pump system such as the DAB Esybox with Esytank or a Powertank set.
What is a water booster pump?
A water booster pump increases the pressure of an existing water supply to give stronger flow at taps, showers and appliances. It can be a small inline pump fitted to the incoming mains, or a larger pump and tank set that draws from a break tank to feed the whole house. Boosters do not create water – they raise the pressure of the water already coming in.
What is the difference between an inline booster and a tank-and-pump booster?
An inline booster connects straight onto the incoming mains and is limited to 12 litres per minute under UK water regulations – examples include the Salamander HomeBoost and WaterBoost WB-Compact. A tank-and-pump booster, such as the Grundfos Home Booster or DAB Esybox with Esytank, draws from a break tank and can deliver much higher flow rates for larger homes with multiple bathrooms.
What is a variable speed booster pump?
A variable speed booster uses an inverter to adjust pump speed in real time to match demand. It maintains constant pressure as outlets open and close, runs more quietly than a fixed-speed pump and typically saves up to 50 per cent of the energy a fixed-speed equivalent would use. The DAB Esybox, DAB Esybox Mini 3 and Grundfos Scala2 are common variable speed examples.
