A pump station is a combination of pumps, chambers, control systems and pipework that transports liquids from one location to another (normally uphill). It also circulates water in treatment systems and drains water from low-lying land.

Pump Services FAQs
What does a pump station do?
How do pump stations work?
A pumping station collects water in a large tank or well, which allows for the storage of foul water or rainwater from a site. After reaching a pre-determined level in the well, the fluid activates a control mechanism, which tells the pumps to run and discharge the fluid. When the level reduces, the pumps stop and wait for the next signal to start again. Often, pumping stations have two pumps that alternate automatically to share the workload.
Why choose Metro Rod for your pump services?
In October 2019, Franchise Brands acquired our sister company Willow Pumps and now works with Metro Rod to deliver high-quality, trusted pump station services. They bring over 25 years of experience in handling both waste and clean water, and they are known for the same values Metro Rod stands for in providing excellent customer service and technical knowledge.
Do pump stations need maintenance?
Yes, pump stations need regular maintenance to ensure they are working to their optimum efficiency. Metro Rod can provide a comprehensive maintenance service, including routine servicing and repairs, to keep your pump station in perfect working order.
How much does it cost to service a water pump?
At Metro Rod, we offer efficient and cost-effective services to maintain your water pumps with minimal disruption to your premises. Several factors influence the price of your pump service, including what is needed, the type of pump, its condition, frequency of use and the number of pumps.
How often should pumps be serviced?
Sewage pumps should generally be serviced every 6 to 12 months, especially if the pump handles a large volume of waste, such as in homes or businesses with multiple bathrooms. Regular inspections and cleaning can help prevent clogs, leaks and costly repairs.
