What are drainage pumps, and why are they necessary?
Drainage pumps are used for draining excess water from basements, garages, gardens, and other areas at risk of flooding or high humidity. They are used in a variety of situations, such as removing water from pools, septic tanks, wells, and even ponds. With them, you can quickly and easily handle excess water, protecting your property from moisture and potential damage. At BalkanEnergy, you will find a range of water pumps with high efficiency, reliability, and easy maintenance.
Types of drainage pumps
They can be categorized by purpose and design, with the most common types being:
- Submersible drainage pumps - suitable for underwater operation, used for pumping clean and contaminated water.
- Surface drainage pumps - placed outside the water, ideal for pumping water from wells, tanks, or other deep containers.
4 Main advantages of drainage pumps
- Efficiency and speed - drainage pumps allow for fast pumping of large amounts of water, making them ideal for emergency situations.
- Durability and long life - modern drainage pumps are made from high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials, ensuring longevity.
- Easy maintenance - drainage pumps generally do not require special maintenance, making them convenient for long-term use.
- Application flexibility - suitable for both domestic and industrial use, they can be used for various tasks, from garden drainage to pumping out basements and tanks.
How to choose the right drainage pump?
When selecting a drainage pump, it’s essential to pay attention to several key features that ensure its efficiency according to your needs:
- Power - the pump's power determines how quickly it will pump water. The larger the water volume, the higher the power needed.
- Flow rate - measured in liters per minute, it shows how much water the pump can move over a specific period.
- Maximum pumping depth - especially important if the pump is used for drawing water from deep tanks or wells.
- Water type - whether it will pump clean, contaminated, or heavily polluted water.
Maintenance of the Drainage Pump
Regular maintenance of the drainage pump is essential for long-term use. Here are some basic steps to follow:
- Cleaning the filters - dirty filters can reduce the pump’s efficiency.
- Checking electrical connections - ensure there are no loose connections or cable damage.
- Pump test before use - it is recommended to test the pump before the season begins, especially if it hasn't been used for a while.
