Ashland Water Pumps

Grinder pumps aren’t glamorous, but they serve a vital purpose. Any home or building that uses water needs to have a grinder pump that can transfer wastewater from the plumbing to the treatment tank. Grinder pumps, as their name implies, perform the extra step of grinding wastewater until it is ready to be easily processed by the treatment system without the risk of blockages. Grinder pumps are particularly useful for treatment systems with small inlet diameters, which typically cannot handle large debris.

Grinder pumps usually operate for about a minute, making them unobtrusive. They are one of the best options for single pump pressure systems in homes and other buildings, although multiple pump systems are also possible. Progressing cavity and centrifugal pump designs are both common. Grinder pumps are well known for their high reliability and low upfront costs, as well as their low maintenance. They do not pose the same hassles that gravity-based systems do, such as landscape and spatial limitations.

Why Choose Ashland Water Pumps

Ashland grinder pumps are constructed from sturdy cast iron, making them durable and long-lasting. They are sealed with silicon carbide, a material that is both temperature and water-resistant, eliminating two of the most common risk factors for any machine. They are also equipped with seal leak detection, ensuring prompt treatment for any potential damage the pump may suffer. This minimizes overall damage and lowers repair costs.

Ashland grinder pumps give home and business owners an easier septic system overall. Unlike normal pumps, Ashland grinder pumps break down the solid waste and as such, grinder systems can handle more debris than normal plumbing. Although there are still products that should not be sent down the drain even in a home with a grinder pump, having a grinder pump lessens the chances of accidental blockage or backups.

Ashland grinder pumps are also extremely low maintenance. Once they have been installed, there is little reason to service them throughout the rest of the product’s lifespan.

Grinder pump pressure sewer systems have been proven to be the most cost-effective waste disposal systems available. They frequently beat out gravity-based systems when analyzed by sewer and water associations. They are frequently chosen for commercial building projects and have been considered one of the higher standards in most homes built since the 1980s.

Grinder pumps are a high-quality product in general, and Ashland offers the best of the best. Their lab-tested, reliable products have been leading the market for over a quarter-century.
