Pump System Maintenance
Rainwater Tank Pump Maintenance & Replacement
Most rainwater tank systems now have pumps. These pumps might be submersible or external pumps. Submersible pumps are most common in new homes. These pumps are inside the tank and usually have some sort of control box mounted on the top of the tank or nearby the tank.
Read more below to learn why it’s important these pump systems are maintained, and how we can assist you.
When Do You Need a Pump System Service?
When water stops flowing, or there’s a decrease in water pressure, or there’s irregular pump behaviour, that’s the surest sign that your pump requires maintenance or repairs.
What We Do
Maintenance and Repair for Different Systems
Transform Water can service water pump systems which are:
- Sewer pumps
- OSD tank pumps
- Dual back up alarm pumps
- Transfer pumps
- Rainwater tank pumps
We can service, repair, and replace these pumps along with your tank system to keep your system working for you.
Why You Shouldn’t Leave a Pump Broken for Long
Pump systems that have a connection to the toilet and washing machine from a rainwater tank, are the most common types of pumps. These pumps switch over seamlessly between mains and rainwater, always having a preference for rainwater to be used before mains. When these fail, your water usage charges will increase.
If you’re a Sydney Water customer and your pump system is neglected, your water use charge increases dramatically and this will be tracked historically and comparatively on your upcoming water bills.
Recommended Water Tank Pump Maintenance
Besides when you’re experiencing problems with your water supply or pump system, there’s also some other critical intervals of time you should inspect your rainwater tank pumps:
- After a blackout or electrical storm, pumps may fail. If this happens, reset them manually.
- As part of a wider rainwater tank maintenance plan. Typically it is recommended that pumps are checked and cleaned (among filters and strainers) every 3-6 months.
