Sewage Pump Stations by Alton Pumps
FOUL & WASTEWATER PUMPING

Reliable Sewage Pump Stations For Foul and Wastewater Duty

The pumps, chamber, valves, controls and rising main must work as one system to manage solids, peak inflow, storage and safe maintenance access.

We support new installations, replacement stations, pump and control upgrades, fault diagnosis and planned servicing.

Systems can be specified for houses, apartment buildings, commercial premises, schools, care facilities, industrial sites and developments.

Hydraulic duty

Match pump performance to inflow, static lift and rising-main losses.

Solids handling

Select appropriate free passage, impeller type and operating velocity.

Resilience

Consider twin pumps, alarm escalation and emergency storage.

Maintenance access

Provide safe lifting, valve access and maintainable controls.

SYSTEM DESIGN AND DELIVERY

A Complete Pump Station
Approach

Send the station drawings, pump and panel information, fault history or proposed duty for a technical review.

Sewage station reliability depends on more than pump size. The station should maintain suitable velocities, avoid excessive starts, provide usable storage and allow pumps and valves to be serviced safely.

Recurring blockages or alarms may be caused by unsuitable pumps, poor level settings, damaged non-return valves, restricted rising mains or inappropriate incoming waste.

For existing stations, send photographs of the wet well, control panel and valve chamber together with pump data, alarm symptoms and any service history.

SEWAGE PUMP STATIONS FAQ

Sewage Pump Stations Questions

Common questions about scope, technical information and delivery.

What is a sewage pump station? +

It collects foul water or wastewater and pumps it through a rising main where gravity drainage is not possible.

Should a sewage station have two pumps? +

Twin-pump duty/standby systems are often used where continuity is important, but the required arrangement depends on the site and risk.

Why does a sewage pump station keep alarming? +

Possible causes include pump faults, blockages, failed floats or sensors, valve problems, electrical faults, high inflow or rising-main restrictions.

Can you replace pumps in an existing station? +

Yes. The replacement should be checked against the actual duty, solids requirement, guide system, controls and available power.

Do you service sewage pump stations? +

Yes. Planned servicing can include pump, control, alarm, valve, level and condition checks to an agreed scope.
