Lake-fed irrigation pump replacement
We replaced a pump that powered on but could not draw water from the lake because its internal impellers were damaged.BEFORE
AFTER
Project case study
Diagnosis
After inspecting and testing the system, we confirmed that the pump’s internal impellers were damaged. The motor still powered on, but the pump could no longer create the suction needed to lift water from the lake.
Work performed
We removed the damaged pump and installed a new one. We reconnected the plumbing and electrical supply, primed the pump, and tested the system from the irrigation zones to confirm proper suction, flow, and pressure.
Components installed
New irrigation pump, PVC connections, and the materials required to complete the installation.
Final result
The new pump began drawing water from the lake correctly and restored the required flow and pressure. After testing, every irrigation zone returned to proper operation.
