Sewerage and Waste Water Pumps

Sewage pumps are vital for transferring sewage liquids and solids efficiently. Typically used in residential applications, they move soft solids up to 2″ in diameter from a sewage basin to a sewer system or septic tank.

Positioned at the lowest point of the basin, sewage pumps are often submersible, ensuring effective operation. They come in automatic, manual, or dual-mode configurations. The latter includes a piggyback plug for manual or automatic use, bypassing the switch or activating it based on need. These centrifugal pumps are designed to handle solids without clogging, featuring durable cast iron housing for long-term use and a 10-25 ft. electric cord.

Effluent pumps are ideal for on-site systems, handling clear effluent from septic tanks efficiently. Solid-handling pumps manage raw sewage effectively, while grinder pumps grind solids before pumping. Sewage pumps prevent flooding, mold growth, and fire hazards, making them essential for homes and businesses.

Regular maintenance, including checking the ground fault circuit interrupter, inspecting the pit for debris, and verifying the functioning of alarm mechanisms, ensures optimal performance and longevity. Overall, sewage pumps play a critical role in infrastructure systems by efficiently managing sewage and wastewater.
