Pumps by Application
Pumps by application groups our range by the job you need to do, so you can start from the problem rather than the pump type. Each section brings together the pumps we would choose for that task, from clearing flood water and draining cellars to lifting sewage, irrigating land and moving diesel.
Still asking which pump do I need? Contact our team with the liquid, the lift and the distance, and we will point you to the right range.

Frequently asked questions
Which pump do I need?
It depends on four things: what the liquid is and what solids it carries, how high the pump has to lift it (the head), how much you need to move (the flow) and what power is available. Pick the application above that matches your job, then compare models on those points. Our guide to pump head and flow rate explains the terms.
Can one pump cover more than one application?
Often, yes. A 2 inch submersible drainage pump can clear a flooded cellar one week and dewater a trench the next, which is why some pumps appear in more than one section. Sewage, fuel and chemical pumps are the exceptions: use them only for the liquids they are built for.
What information should I have ready before I contact you?
Tell us the liquid being pumped, the size of any solids, the vertical lift from the water level to the discharge point, the length of the discharge pipe or hose and the power supply (110v, 230v, 400v or none). With those details we can usually recommend a pump on the first call.
