‘We simply know pumps better’
The Under Sink Pump Out Unit is an automatic system designed to handle dirty sink and basin waste water, in places where it’s not possible to achieve gravity fall to the sewer.
These units are compact, making them ideal for installing inside confined spaces.
An Undersink Pump Out Unit relies on a small electric submersible pump. The chamber of the submersible pump receives incoming liquid from the basin or sink. As the level in the chamber rises, the float switch rises and activates the pump. The pump then discharges the liquid causing the level to fall thus turning the pump off.
Compact Design: Undersink pump-out units are designed to fit conveniently beneath sinks or in small spaces, making them ideal for areas with limited room. Their compact size ensures they can be easily integrated into existing plumbing systems without extensive modifications.
Efficient Wastewater Management: These units are equipped with powerful pumps that efficiently move wastewater from sinks, dishwashers, or other fixtures to the main drainage system. This ensures that wastewater is effectively managed, even in challenging conditions.
Versatility: Undersink pump-out units are versatile and can be used in various applications, including:
Residential Kitchens and Bathrooms I Commercial Kitchens and Bars I Industrial Settings
Easy Installation and Maintenance: These units are designed for easy installation and maintenance. They come with clear instructions and all necessary components, allowing for quick setup. Regular maintenance is straightforward, ensuring long-lasting performance.
Reliable Operation: Undersink pump-out units are built with high-quality materials and components to ensure reliable operation. They are designed to handle varying volumes of wastewater, providing consistent performance over time.
Basement and Below-Grade Installations: In buildings where sinks and other fixtures are located below the main sewer line, gravity drainage is not possible. Undersink pump-out units provide an effective solution by pumping wastewater up to the main drain line.
Kitchen Islands: Modern kitchen designs often feature island sinks that may not have direct access to gravity drainage. Undersink pump-out units ensure efficient drainage from these fixtures, maintaining the functionality and aesthetics of the kitchen.
Retrofit Projects: In renovation or retrofit projects, modifying the existing plumbing system for gravity drainage can be challenging and costly. Undersink pump-out units offer a cost-effective alternative, enabling efficient wastewater management without extensive alterations.
General Pump Company offers a range of proprietary and custom systems to meet space requirements under the sink.
We typically supply vortex pumps because of their solids handling capabilities. There are a variety of pumps available to meet the height and distance that needs to be pumped. Please let us know your requirements, and we can quote you on a custom made under sink pump out unit.
