Types of Water Pumps You Can Go for In Your Home and Where to Use Them

Having a reliable source of water in your home is key to ensuring comfort and proper sanitation. At the same time, you need water to bring life into your garden by watering flowers, grass and trees or larger farming projects. For you to distribute water to and from various storage points, you need to have the right water pumps for the job. By choosing the right pump, you will optimise its capacity to distribute water at the least maintenance cost. The following are a few types of water pumps that you can go for in your home and the various applications you can use them for:

Multistage Centrifugal Pumps

Centrifugal pumps generate kinetic energy using rotating impellers to move water from one point to another. These impellers create a suction and discharge force that takes up water from the source and discharges it through outlets. In a multistage centrifugal pump, there are many impellers to increase the discharge capacity of the pump. Given its high discharge capacity, the multistage centrifugal pump is ideal for drawing water from a source such as a borehole to your main storage facility. You will be able to fill up the storage facility within the shortest time possible.

Just like most of the other centrifugal pumps, a multistage centrifugal pump can work above the water level or immersed in the water. This means that you can lower the pump and still draw water even when the water level at the source is low (another reason they are ideal for boreholes).

Booster Pump

If you already have a pump in place, its capacity to supply water can be outdone by your need to distribute it to more places within the home. This can easily lead to a water shortage and inconvenience you in the end. Thankfully, you can go for a booster pump to improve the water supply capacity of your existing pump. The booster pump can come as an end suction pump to enable your pump to draw more water from your water source. You can also opt for a horizontal split case pump to boost the amount of water supplied by split conduit pipes.

 Cryogenic Pumps

If you live in an area that experiences very low temperatures, a cryogenic pump is the right alternative for you. They are designed to handle fluids (water included) at very low temperatures with minimal mechanical complications. In such cases, other types of pumps can develop problems due to the freezing and thawing of cold water.
