Advanced jet pump technology for constant water pressure
The Wallace Hydrojet automatic surface-mounted pumps are designed to deliver consistent water pressure. Using jet pump technology, these pumps automatically sense water demand and adjust on the spot. The self-priming design lifts water from below ground, making them suitable for above- or below-ground tanks, shallow wells, bores, and spear points. For households connected to mains supply or low-pressure systems, Hydrojet pumps are a trusted way to ensure pressurised water.
Wallace Hydrojet series domestic water pump: Different models to suit a wide range of home sizes and water demands
The Hydrojet series is available in multiple variations, each tailored to different household demands:
- HJ 60 – Delivers up to 50 L/min flow with a maximum head of 35 m, powered by a 0.37 kW motor. Compact and efficient, this model is ideal for small single-level homes, baches, or properties with modest water requirements, where reliable pressure is needed without oversizing the system.
- HJ 100 – Produces up to 65 L/min flow with a maximum head of 44 m, using a 0.75 kW motor. This versatile mid-range pump is well-suited for medium to larger homes, including two-storey properties or households with multiple bathrooms, where demand is higher and consistent pressure across the whole house is essential.

FAQ
Common pump problems and solutions with the Wallace Hydrojet series domestic water pump
Why won’t my pump start when I turn it on?
This often comes down to a lack of power, a tripped breaker, or a dry pump trigger. Always check the electrical supply first and make sure there’s enough water in the source. If the run‑dry protection was activated, restore the water supply and reset the automatic water pressure booster pump.
Why does the pump start and stop too often (rapid cycling)?
Frequent on/off cycling is typically caused by leaks, such as a dripping tap, leaking pipe joint, or air entering the suction line. Finding and fixing the leak, plus ensuring tight pipe connections, usually resolves the issue.
The pump runs but delivers low flow or pressure. What’s wrong?
Possible causes include clogged filters, blocked suction lines, a worn impeller, or insufficient power. Cleaning the inlet filter is a good first step. If the system demand has increased, you might need to upgrade to a larger model like the HJ 100 or HJ 140.
The pump is noisy or vibrating—what should I check?
Noise often means air in the system, loose mounting, or suction cavitation. Make sure your HJ series multi-outlet water pump is on a solid base, pipework is secure, and there’s no trapped air.
Why does the pump suddenly stop during operation?
That’s your pump’s run-dry protection doing its job—if water runs out, it shuts off to avoid damage. Once water is available again, you can safely reset and restart it.
How do I stop the pump from losing prime or failing to pull water?
Losing prime is usually the result of air leaks in the suction line, a faulty check valve, or a damaged suction component. Check for cracks, tighten fittings, replace worn parts, and ensure your automatic water pressure booster pump is correctly primed.
How long will my Hydrojet pump last with regular use?
With proper setup and periodic checks—like keeping filters clean and inspecting seals—Hydrojet pumps can deliver many years of reliable performance. Their stainless-steel build and the availability of local parts are significant assets.
How do I prime a Hydrojet pump?
Hydrojet series automatic water booster pumps are self-priming, but the suction line must first be filled with water to remove trapped air. When installing or restarting after maintenance, pour clean water into the pump housing until it is full, then seal and start the pump. If it loses prime, check for air leaks in the suction line or faulty valves.
Do Hydrojet pumps use a lot of power?
Those small to large home water booster pumps are designed for energy efficiency. They only run when there is water demand and switch off automatically when taps or appliances are not in use. Choosing the right model for your home ensures you get the best balance of power and efficiency.
Can Hydrojet pumps handle bore water or slightly dirty water?
Hydrojet series domestic water pumps are best suited for clean water supplies from tanks, mains, or shallow wells. They can handle minor sediment, but if your bore water contains sand, silt, or high iron levels, we recommend fitting a suitable pre-filter to protect the pump and ensure long life.
