Abstract: A pump assisted water filtration system comprising a filter assembly, a pump assembly, and a water storage tank, which produces purified water through a reverse osmosis process and stores the purified water for later use. The pump assembly receives water from a water source and delivers pressurized water to the filter assembly. The filter assembly is configured to filter the impurities within the water, producing purified water which is collected in the water storage tank. A water flow interrupt permits the flow of water to the pump when the water level falls within the water storage tank, and blocks the flow of water to the pump when the water storage tank is full. The pump is further configured to activate when the pressure of the water flowing to the pump reaches a pump activation threshold, and deactivate when the pressure of the water falls below the pump activation threshold.
