Identify failed, obsolete and high-risk equipment.
Pump Station Upgrades & Refurbishment
Pump station upgrades and refurbishment for ageing, unreliable or underperforming stations, including pumps, controls, level systems, alarms, telemetry, valves and discharge equipment.
PUMP STATION REFURBISHMENT
Extend Service Life With Targeted Pump Station Upgrades
An upgrade should address the reason for poor reliability rather than simply replacing the oldest visible component.
We review duty, condition, obsolescence, controls, access and maintenance history before proposing a staged or complete refurbishment.
Works can range from pump and control replacement to new guide systems, valves, internal pipework, telemetry and kiosk equipment.
Duty review
Check whether existing pumps and pipework suit current flow and head.
Controls and telemetry
Improve protection, level control, alarms and remote visibility.
Staged refurbishment
Plan urgent, short-term and capital works around site operation.

Approach
Send the station drawings, pump and panel information, fault history or proposed duty for a technical review.
Older stations often contain a mixture of obsolete pumps, modified controls and undocumented changes. A survey and asset review help define what can remain and what should be replaced.
Capacity changes should be checked hydraulically; larger pumps can overload the rising main or electrical supply and may not resolve incoming drainage limitations.
For a refurbishment review, send drawings, pump and panel data, service history, fault records, photographs and any known future flow changes.
Survey
Record condition, duty, obsolescence and access.
Prioritise
Separate urgent defects from planned improvements.
Refurbish
Replace pumps, controls and mechanical equipment.
Commission
Test the upgraded station and update records.
Completed foul-water pump station upgrade · Hampshire
Two foul pumps and a twin-pump control panel installed
Alton Pumps installed two new 230V foul pumps and a new 230V twin-pump control panel at a Hampshire pump station.
Recorded outcome: The new pumps and panel were tested as a complete system and recorded as working.

PUMP STATION UPGRADES & REFURBISHMENT FAQ
Pump Station Upgrades & Refurbishment Questions
Common questions about scope, technical information and delivery.
When should a pump station be refurbished? +
Refurbishment is appropriate where equipment is obsolete, repeatedly failing, unsafe to maintain, poorly controlled or no longer suitable for the duty.
Can the station be upgraded in stages? +
Yes, where the equipment interfaces and operational risk allow a planned staged programme.
Can you replace the control panel and pumps together? +
Yes. Coordinating pumps, motor protection, controls, sensors and alarms often produces a more reliable result.
Will bigger pumps increase capacity? +
Not necessarily. The rising main, power supply, storage, receiving system and operating point must all be checked.
Can telemetry be added during an upgrade? +
Yes, subject to the control design, communications, required signals and agreed monitoring platform.
