A sump pump is indispensable in any home with a basement. Basements are prone to damage because of dampness that happens during changes in weather conditions. They are also highly susceptible to flooding during rainy season. To keep your basement dry and useful for storage, you need to have some sort of basement waterproofing system that will accumulate the water down and away from your basement. Such a system would have great use for a submersible sump pump. A sump pump relocates and collects moisture and water that has accumulated in the basement, and concentrates the water towards a sump pit. Sump pumps have to major kinds: the submersible and the pedestal kind.

Since a submersible pump goes inside the sump pit together with the motor, it creates less noise than a pedestal sump pump. It stays hidden and does not take up space inside your basement. It may also be more effective in draining your basement water than a pedestal pump, because a submersible pump can contain higher volumes of water. Also, if your sump pit water can get tiny particles in it, a submersible is more capable of handling water with solid components. A submersible pump is ideal for use in basements that are used for living or recreation, or if you have children and pets inside the house. The danger of a pedestal sump pump is that its motor is exposed and could potentially be tampered with by kids or animals. With a submersible pump, this concern is literally buried to the ground.

Submersible sump pumps are basically the pumping machine which are submerged in water and push water on the surface. These are usually used to remove the accumulated water which generally comes from natural underground water. They are generally of two types- pedestal and submersible. They can be used in a number of appliances such as well, fountain and borehole pumps. They are designed to offer a smooth function in a number of leading industries.

The sump pump is used in many appliances. And, they solve the purpose for both the residential as well as commercial users. Single stage pumps are generally applied for drainage, sewage pumping and general industrial pumping whereas multistage submersible pumps are submerged into the borehole and applied for water abstraction, water wells and oil wells.

This equipment is also used to solve other purposes including sewage treatment plants, sea water handling, ground water pumping and borehole drilling and pumping. But special attention must be paid while using them for certain liquid that are contaminated with combustible substances. In that case, special types of pumping machine are designed for these purposes.

The submersible pumps are multistage eccentric pumps moving in a vertical position. Despite of the fact that constructional and operative features that have underwent a continuous enlargement over the years; their basic operative principle remains the same. Submersible pump works on the principle in which greater centrifugal forces emerged by the high rotational speed of the impeller, lose the kinetic energy in the diffuser where a conversion of kinetic energy to pressure energy takes place. This is the cardinal operative mechanism of radial and mixed flow pumping machine.
