Everything you need to know about waste water pumps
On this page, we’ll look at the key points about waste water pumps. We’ll cover their functions, types, and maintenance tips. This will help you keep your home’s system running smoothly
What is a waste water pump?
A waste water pump is a special submersible pump used to drain dirty water that contains solid particles. This could include things like sand, soil, or even leaves and twigs. Some pumps can even handle water with sewage. Always check for the "FEKA" label on the pump's name to be sure. These pumps are often called construction pumps because of their versatility. They are great for both home and professional use.
How does a waste water pump work?
A waste water pump is easy to use: just place it directly into the water. The pump has a special impeller at the bottom that sucks up water and any solid particles. These particles are then broken down by the impeller, making it easy to move the water elsewhere.
Where can you use a waste water pump?
Waste water pumps are perfect for draining ground water from construction sites or even your own garden. They are also ideal for use in crawl spaces, ponds, and other outdoor areas that may become flooded.
Key features & specifications
Our waste water pumps come with different flow rates and head heights.
The pump capacity shows how much water the pump can move per hour. For example, a pump might move 30,000 litres per hour (about 7,925 gallons per hour, or 132 gallons per minute).
The delivery head height shows how high the pump can lift the water. For example, a pump might have a head height of 10 metres (about 33 feet).
A small warning: A key disadvantage of these pumps is that they are not designed for very low suction. Because they need space to handle larger solids, they can't drain water down to the last drop. This also prevents the pump from getting clogged.
