Selecting the correct pump requires knowing the volume of water, the vertical height it needs to be lifted, and the presence of any solid debris. Contact our hydraulic experts today to determine the precise inlet size and power rating for your job.
The main difference is the type of water the pump is designed to handle. Clean water pumps are intended for relatively clear water with little or no solid material present, making them suitable for applications such as draining pools, tanks, ponds, or flooded areas containing clean water. Trash pumps are built for more demanding environments and are designed to handle water containing mud, silt, debris, leaves, and other suspended solids. Their heavy-duty construction and larger internal clearances help reduce the risk of blockages when working in challenging conditions. If you're unsure which type of pump is required, our team can assess the application and recommend the most suitable option.
Flooding and excess water can cause significant disruption, so a rapid response is often essential. We prioritise urgent water pump hire requests wherever possible and aim to dispatch equipment quickly to help minimise damage and restore safe site conditions. Our team can discuss the situation, assess the volume of water involved, and recommend the most appropriate pump for the application. Acting quickly can help reduce the impact of flooding on properties, construction sites, agricultural land, and commercial premises. If you require emergency assistance, contact our team as soon as possible so we can begin arranging the most suitable solution.
Yes. Selecting the correct generator is important when powering electric pumps, particularly because many pump motors require a higher level of power during startup than they do during normal operation. Our power specialists can calculate the pump's running requirements, startup demand, cable distances, and site conditions to ensure the generator is correctly sized. This helps avoid issues such as nuisance tripping, poor performance, or unnecessary fuel consumption. By matching the generator and pump correctly, you can help ensure reliable and efficient operation throughout the project.
This depends on the type of pump being used. Many engine-driven site pumps feature self-priming designs that simplify setup and operation. In most cases, the pump chamber must be filled with water before the initial startup, after which the pump is able to draw water automatically during operation. Following the correct priming procedure is important, as running a pump dry can cause damage and affect performance. Our team will explain the setup process when supplying the equipment and can provide additional guidance if required.
If a pump becomes blocked during operation, our technical support team can help diagnose the issue and advise on the safest way to inspect and clear the blockage where appropriate. Many blockages can be resolved quickly once the cause has been identified, helping to minimise downtime and restore operation. If the issue cannot be resolved remotely, additional support can be arranged based on the nature of the problem and site requirements. Having access to expert support throughout the hire period helps ensure any issues can be dealt with as quickly and safely as possible.
Yes. We offer flexible hire periods to suit both short-term and long-term requirements. Whether you need a pump for a single day to deal with an unexpected issue or require equipment for an extended drainage, construction, or dewatering project, we can provide a hire solution tailored to your needs. Flexible rental options allow you to access the equipment you need without committing to longer hire periods than necessary. If you're unsure how long the pump will be required, our team can recommend a hire arrangement that provides additional flexibility as your project develops.
