Septic Tank Pump Question?

admin — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 22:11:37 +0000

Monday morning my plumber is coming out and look at my septic Tank Pump to see if it’s a bad switch or I need a whole new pump. 10 yrs. ago I bought from him my Goulds Pump and he installed it. Should my pump have lasted longer then that or is that about right. I have a 900 gallon tank and one person who lives in the house ie,, sometimes 2 when my girlfriend comes over and showers and uses water. The problem is my tank is overflowing. Thanks.

10 yrs from a sewage ejection pump is pretty good. I have seen them last as long as 15-20 yrs., but that is rare. I’ve found the life to be around 7-10 yrs.
The amount of use of the pump isn’t determined by the size of the tank but by the actual float setting.The travel of the float up and down determines how often the pump runs.
Good luck.

i have a goulds water pump that was my dads, and know NOTHING about it. does anyone have any info on it?

i have searched EVERYWHERE and can not find anything.

Google…

If you are looking for technical (spare/repair) info I would think that steam (trains) enthusiasts will be able to help

How do you fix low well water pressure?

The present pressure pump is 15 years old. We also have sulfur in our water.

the pipe to the home might be clogged a pump with more horsepower a bigger airator

Which QB is better to start for Fantasy Football team?

admin — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 18:17:22 +0000

My QBs are Michael Vick, Brett Favre. and Eli Manning
i know it’s between Eli and Brett but Eli just got that contract and should be pumped
heres the rest of my tream
AND I AM NOT GETTING RID OF VICK!!
RBs: Adrian Peterson, Matt Forte, Thomas Jones
WRs: Steve Smith, Calvin Johnson, Benard Berrian, Devin Hester, Terrel Owens and Donald Driver
TE is Jeremy Shocky
K is Robbie Gould
and my D is New England

Since you dont have a clear starter qb, i would play the situational qb game. I would play whatever QB has the weakest defence(or pass defence) that week… not that i am high on favre, but 4 out of his first 5 weeks he does play Detroit, Cleveland, St.louis, and Sanfran. I see no reason why favre wont have multi TDs on those days.

The main question that you should be asking is, How would the idiots in my league let me draft AP and Forte?

what will be theoretical approach for calculating pressure at pump outlet?

admin — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 18:17:18 +0000

What will be theoretical approach to calculate pressure at output of propeller block if pump motor is rotating at speed N rpm? like using maths and probably integration?what will be theory?

A pump does not create pressure, only flow, which is used to calculate resulting pressure from input power and output aperture cross section.

Power delivered to the pump is
P = 2 pi N T
N = Revs/sec
T = Torque in Newtons
P = Watts

Power delivered to the fluid is the volume flow times the pressure drop
P = (m^3/second) (Pa) = (m^3/sec)(N/m^2)
Pa = P/(volume flow)

Small submersible electric pump for getting water off cover - ?

admin — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 17:42:37 +0000

I have a cover over my pool outside, and during the off-season it often gets a large amount of rain water that accumulates in the middle of the cover several inches or more deep. Can anyone recommend a really good, small, reasonable electric submersible pump I can buy that I can plug in outside and toss the pump down in the "pond" of water & pump it off fairly quickly? I am sure nowdays some companies make some nice little portable pumps that are waterproof & submersible.
Thanks for any recommendations you can give me !!
Thx TC & Oil Field, good suggestions - Human-guy, no can do what you say, to start with its round/oval, not square - there are no "sides" - also the pool is 15 x 30, I don’t know if you realize how large that is but there is no way you can pull that huge of a cover tight enough so there is no ponding of water on top, u obviously have no experience w/ this situation.

I wish I could remember the one I used in Arizona for exactly that purpose …..I think it was “little giant”….but I can’t remember …been a few years.
I had a retractable cover and would throw the pump in the middle {it had a garden hose attached to it} and pump it out…….. here is a site you can check.
Little giant is also readily available at Ace I think …Home Depot

You have Vick? Definitely don’t start him. I would say start Eli or maybe Brett… but I would wait and see how he does w/ his new team first.
