Water pumps can be used for an enormous range of purposes, such as disposing of unwanted bodies of water or helping you access groundwater via wells and boreholes. They are incredibly resilient, versatile machines.
However, like all machines, they can break or become faulty over time. Leaking, strange noises and general inefficiency can all be symptoms of a faulty pump. Here at Anglian Pumping Services, we understand that if a problem seems minor, you may be tempted to put off having it fixed. After all, repairs can inconvenience you, as you can’t use a pump while it’s being mended.
However, we believe that it’s important to have a faulty pump repaired at the earliest opportunity and our reliable team of mobile engineers can provide this service. In our blog entry today, we listed some of the indicators that your water pump might be damaged.
1. Avoiding replacements
A mechanical fault or breakage that isn’t repaired promptly can become worse over time. If a fault becomes too severe, repairing your pump may cease to be an option and you may have to invest in a replacement. Replacing a pump can be more costly than repairing it. What’s more, setting up a new pump can be time-consuming. To avoid having to replace your water pump, get it repaired the moment it starts showing signs of damage.
2. Maintaining efficiency
Even a relatively small fault can prevent your pump from pumping water effectively. For example, if your pump is broken, you may receive only a trickle of water instead of a flow. Regardless of whether you’re trying to pump away unwanted water or access water that you need, this can be incredibly frustrating. Maintain your pump’s efficiency by having it repaired as soon as it becomes necessary.
3. Minimising risks
Faulty pumps aren’t usually dangerous, but there’s no need to take unnecessary risks. Switching off your pump and having it repaired as soon as you notice that it’s damaged is the best way to eliminate any danger that might arise from a faulty mechanism.
