    The document discusses different types of pumps used in plumbing systems: - Booster pumps are used above ground to assist with water pressure distribution. They can be centrifugal or variable speed drive pumps. - Sump pumps are used below ground to move water from the lowest level of a building upwards, and are usually centrifugal. - Jockey pumps are used in fire sprinkler systems to maintain elevated pressure when no fire is present, and are either centrifugal or regenerative turbine type.
