Is a lift station a sump pump?
The lift pump has a completely different function than the sump system. While the sump system deals with outside water and keeping it outside, the lift pump system is responsible for handling wastewater from inside the house (basement level) and getting it into the drainage system.Aug 26, 2020
What is the purpose of a pump station?
Water pumping stations are machines that can be used to transport water from one site to another, without needing direct human or animal input. These devices can supply water to canals, circulate water in treatment systems and can even drain water from low lying land.Apr 9, 2019
What is a lift station and how does it work?
When low areas of land or where pipe depth underground becomes excessive, pump stations or lift stations are installed. These stations lift the wastewater to a higher point so it can again flow by gravity, or the wastewater can be pumped under pressure directly to the treatment plant.Jun 24, 2020
