The system of autonomous water supply plays important role in everyday life of the seasonal dacha. And heart of similar systems are pumping stations. And if those fail, it is possible to try to repair them independently, without resorting to the help of specialized services.
Instruction
1. If the pumping station does not turn on at all, the problem with power supply can appear the reason of it. Check whether the station is included in network; examine contacts, clean them if they have darkened. Make sure that the surface of cable is not damaged. In the most unpleasant case the problem can consist in the failed engine.
2. If the station is started, however does not pump water, business can be that the pump back valve located in well or other source of water has got littered. Clean it from the hammered litter that the station has earned. If problem not in the valve, then I suck, perhaps, there is just not enough water in well. In this case just it is necessary to lower hose by couple of meters more deeply. Sometimes the station refuses to function because of too dirty water, that is because of surplus in it of sand and other similar small impurity. Acquisition for the station of other pump which will have less development between the body and the impeller will be the solution of this problem.
3. At the workstation when water arrives not evenly, the problem often turns out that the pump pumps as well air. In this case it is necessary to examine all surface of hose to find tear through which air gets. Also it is necessary to consider that maximum height between the pumping station and water surface in well is about eight meters, depending on configuration. If admissible height is broken, water can arrive breakthroughs.
4. Quite often it happens so that after long idle time, for example during the winter period when it is not necessary to pump water, the pumping station cannot start working to descent though the engine is serviceable and functions. In such situation to help repair the pump simple manipulation with the impeller can. Without having forgotten to disconnect power supply of the station, it is necessary to twist independently a little the impeller thus to warm the pumping station after long inaction and to return it to operating condition.
