Has a propeller-type of impeller running in a casing. The pressure is developed by the flow of liquid over the blades of impeller.
PumpMan SoCal offers emergency and non-emergency grinder pump repair and replacement. A Grinder Pump is a wastewater pumping device – often associated with sewage, spetic and shredder pump applicatoins. Wastewater usually from fixtures, toilets, kitchen sinks, bathtubs, washing machines, etc. flows through the sewer pipes into the grinder pump’s holding tank. Once the wastewater inside the tank reaches a specific level, the pump will turn on, grind the waste into a fine slurry, and pump it to the central sewer system or septic tank. Grinder Pumps can be installed in the basement or in the yard. A grinder pump is different from a sump pump or effluent pump.
There are two types of grinder pumps, semi-positive displacement and centrifugal. Grinder pumps are a type of submersible sewage (septic) pump that has cutting teeth incorporated onto the impeller to grind the sewage for pressure sewer applications. The discharge piping can be smaller since the wastewater is ground up to a liquid, high head conditions are a specific use for this design of pump.
