Three criteria guide the choice: the type of water to be removed, the flow rate you need and the discharge head. A lift pump moves clean, loaded or waste water to a higher or more distant point: sewer, ditch, sump or tank.
For a detailed comparison: Choosing a lift pump.
Complete the pump with a non-return valve, a float or level detector, a control panel, a high-level alarm and a mounting base. These accessories are available in the lift accessories and control panels categories of the shop.
A cellar or drainage pump removes clear or lightly loaded water (flooded cellar, sump, rainwater). A loaded-water pump lets suspended particles pass (light mud, fine gravel). A sewage pump has a large free passage for the solids found in domestic waste water. Each product page gives the free passage, i.e. the maximum particle size the pump accepts.
A grinder pump removes the waste of a toilet, washbasin or shower installed below the level of the sewer (basement, extension). It grinds the solids and pushes them through a small-diameter pipe over a significant height or distance. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for connection and discharge.
The total head is the vertical height to climb, plus the friction losses in pipes and bends. Choose a pump whose performance curve gives at least the flow you need at that head, and keep a margin. A pipe that is too long or too narrow reduces the real flow noticeably.
A non-return valve on the discharge pipe stops water from flowing back into the tank each time the pump stops. A high-level alarm warns you of a failure or a blockage before the tank overflows.
Small and medium pumps run on single-phase 230 V, like a household socket. High-power pumps (public bodies, industry, lift stations) are available in three-phase 400 V. 12 V and 24 V models also exist for mobile installations.
A submersible pump placed at the low point is enough to empty a cellar from time to time. As soon as drainage is permanent (sanitary fittings, kitchen or a basement room), you install a lift station: a sealed tank, one or more pumps, a level control and a non-return valve. Two pumps take turns and keep the service running if one fails.
For the water from toilets, shower and washbasin: a sewage pump, a macerator pump or a lifting micro-station with built-in grinder, depending on the discharge point. Check the free passage and the discharge diameter on the product page. The detail is in the guide Choosing a lift pump.
