Bathroom grey water pumps

If you're adding a shower, basin, bath or bidet somewhere your existing plumbing can't reach - a basement conversion or a bathroom far from the main soil pipe, for example - a grey water pump moves the waste water up and along to your drainage system for you. Most models handle several fixtures at once, and can be tucked away behind a panel or under the floor so they're barely noticeable once installed.

Common uses

• Basement or below-ground bathrooms
• New bathrooms added to garages, attics or extensions
• Bathrooms located a long way from the main drain run

Kitchen & utility room pumps

The same principle applies to kitchens, utility rooms and laundry areas. A kitchen or utility pump - sometimes called a lifting pump - clears grey water (and the odd bit of food debris) from sinks, dishwashers and washing machines, opening up spaces like basement kitchens, garden rooms or self-contained annexes that wouldn’t otherwise have proper drainage.

Common uses

• Basement or garden-room kitchens and laundry areas
• Self-contained annexes and studio conversions
• Commercial kitchens, cafés and small catering setups

Condensate pumps

Air conditioning units, refrigeration equipment, dehumidifiers and condensing boilers all produce condensate, and it has to go somewhere. A condensate pump collects and safely disposes of this water, protecting your equipment and your property from the damp, mould and corrosion that build-up can cause. We supply and fit both standard condensate pumps and neutralising units for acidic condensate.

Common uses

• Air conditioning and refrigeration units
• Dehumidifiers and other water-producing equipment
• Condensate runs where gravity drainage isn’t possible

Submersible pumps

When a basement, cellar or garage floods, whether from heavy rain, a burst pipe or rising groundwater, a submersible pump is the quickest way to get the water out. These pumps sit directly in the water and can shift large volumes fast, including water carrying debris, silt or grit. We supply portable pumps as well as fixed installations for properties at ongoing risk.

Common uses

• Flooded basements, cellars and garages
• Water removal after leaks or storms
• Ongoing groundwater or flood-risk properties

Booster pumps

If water pressure in your home is too low for a decent shower, or you need reliable pressure for irrigation or an automatic flush system, a booster pump increases and steadies the pressure of water drawn from a tank. Quieter, automatic models reduce the frequent starting and stopping that shortens the life of cheaper units.

Common uses

• Low mains pressure affecting showers or taps
• Garden irrigation and drip-feed systems
• Properties relying on stored or tanked water

Surface pumps

A surface pump sits above the water source rather than in it, drawing clean water from a tank, well or water butt and pushing it where it’s needed. They’re easy to get at for servicing, which makes them a practical choice for garden watering, rainwater harvesting and general clean water supply where mains pressure isn’t available.

Common uses

• Garden irrigation and watering systems
• Rainwater harvesting setups
• General clean water supply where mains pressure isn’t available
