Pressure Pump Types

The types of the pressure pump for house are categorized by the purpose they are applied and here are only some types of the water pumps that are the most common for house use. The pressure pumps that are specifically for industrial use or for the work place are not included here.

The most common types of the pressure pump for house are the sump pumps, the well pumps, the submersible pumps, and the water tank pumps. They all differ from each other with particular purposes.

The sump pumps are the water pumps that pump the water away from the foundation or basement of the house where the water needs to be removed. When the sump pump works, it collects the water first and releases the water to a discharge pipe once the capacity is reached.

This type of water pump is designed to channel away clean ground water only. The pedestal pump is a conventional type of sump pump. It is a machine that works above the surface level, which means the pump as well as the machine is above and way from the water.
The use of this type of pump can get overheated sometimes. As a result, the maintenance of the machine is important. Also, this type of pump takes up certain space, so it is usually placed or installed near the rooms which are most likely to accumulate water.

The submersible water pumps are actually a kind of the sump pumps; yet they are rather different from the pedestal pumps. The submersible pump looks like a pipe with the pump and all the components contained within the pump. It does not store the water.

Instead, it is connected directly to the pipe so that it pumps out the water and deliver it through the pipe to a water tank. The water collector does not need to be close to the pumping site and the submersible pump is placed into the water as it works. Therefore, it takes up much less place than the regular sump pumps and it does not have the cooling issue as a pedestal pump does.

The well pumps are very similar to the conventional pressure pump for house for they are taken as a part of the water supply system for houses as well. The well pump channels water from the underground water source into the houses. There are also a couple of subtypes of the well pumps too.

The shallow well pump is designed to extract water from the underground source within 25 feet to the ground level while there is deep well pump working to channel water from 25 feet to around 100 feet away underneath the ground. Some deep well pumps can reach the water source that is 400 feet deep into the ground.

The water tank, or the pressure tank, is used as a water reserve. When emergency situation takes place, such as the power outage, the water tank works to replace the regular water supply systems.

This type of pressure pump also helps to extend the lifespan of the water supply system for it shares the loading of the electrical components of the water pumps. The role of the water tank is more of an alternative when the regular solution goes down. The water tank stays silent when it is not used, but it can definitely be a very powerful backup whenever it is needed.
