Pumping Station Repair

Unstable weather and growing amounts of development land, increases the importance of a pumping station that is working as it should. This is because pumping stations don’t just take away the waste effluent produced by housing developments.

They are also key in making sure that the sewer system doesn’t become flooded in heavy rain. Many larger pumping stations can store liquids to make sure that this doesn’t happen.

With the Environment Agency putting more pressure on water authorities to protect the environment from pollution. Newer pumping stations and regular maintenance can drastically reduce the environmental risks associated with overflowing and breakdowns.

Jeremy Green

★★★★★

I have used A&C as my pump system supplier for numerous building projects for over 10 years now and they consistently provide an excellent service. Even if other pump systems are specified, I always get an equivalent product from A&C as their products have proved reliable and better value for money in my opinion. Would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for this type of product/service.

Kris Hadman

★★★★★

I have used A&C pumps on two occasions and have been very satisfied with the advice and the service I have received from them, particularly with the installation of a domestic sewerage system. The company did what they said they were going to do, on time and at the price quoted and the system has worked without fail. You can’t really ask for more than that! I would highly recommend them.

Nick Arnold

★★★★★

Excellent advice and customer service from initial enquiry to installation – very happy with the service from A & C Pumps, and will use them again on our next project.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Packaged Pumping Station

A package pumping station is an integrated system, built in a housing manufactured from strong, impact-resistant polyethylene or glass-reinforced plastic. The Packaged Pumping Station unit is supplied with internal pipework fitted, pre-assembled ready for installation into the ground, after which the submersible pumps and control equipment are fitted. Features may include controls for fully automatic operation; a high-level alarm indication, in the event of pump failure; and possibly a guide-rail/auto-coupling/pedestal system, to permit easy removal of pumps for maintenance.

In more recent times, a ‘package pumping station’ provides an efficient and economic way of installing a drainage system. They are suitable for mechanical building services collection and pumping of liquids like surface water, wastewater or sewage from areas where drainage by gravity is not possible.

Compared to the conventional alternative of a concrete well and separate pump system, a packaged system offers the potential for reducing the cost and time involved with civil work and site labour.

Packaged Pumping Station installations

In addition to manufacture our highly skilled team offer a packaged pumping station installation service and extensive confined working spaces experience. We enjoy supporting all our clients with strong advice and consultation to find the ideal solution, offer an excellent 6 year warranty, ongoing servicing and guarantee that we won’t be beaten on price, dispatch or quality!

Uses of a Packaged Pumping Station

Over many years of new, intense housing and commercial development, the prime location sites where sewage/storm water could be disposed of by gravity into the public sewerage system have long ago been used up. By the use of a Packaged Pumping Station, low lying properties or properties built a distance away from the sewer can now be easily connected.

Excerpt taken from ‘The Building Regulations, Approved Document H 2.36’

“Where gravity drainage is impracticable, or protection against flooding due to surcharge in downstream sewers is required, a pumping installation will be needed.”

Packaged pumping station installations are available, they are suitable for installation within buildings. Floor mounted units may be particularly suited for installation in basements. These should conform to BS EN 12050. Pumping installations for use inside buildings should be designed in accordance with BS EN 12056-4.

Packaged Pumping Station suitability

Packaged pumping stations are also suitable for installation outside buildings are also available. Guidance on the design of pumping installations for use outside buildings may be found in BS EN 752-6.

Where foul water drainage from a building is to be pumped, the effluent receiving chamber should be sized to contain 24-hour inflow to allow for disruption in service. The minimum daily discharge of foul drainage should be taken as 150 litres per head per day for domestic use. For other types of building, the capacity of the receiving chamber should be based on the calculated daily demand of the water intake for the building. Where only a proportion of the foul sewage is to be pumped, then the capacity should be based pro-rata. In all pumped systems the controls should be so arranged to optimise pump operation.
