Our Plumbing Services
Why Your Home Needs Reliable Pumps
Plumbing pumps create the pressure needed to move water where it needs to go in your home. They deliver fresh water from supply lines to your fixtures and remove wastewater efficiently. The right pump type for each application ensures your system works properly and lasts for years.
We service and install pumps for all common residential applications:
- Centrifugal Pumps: A rotating impeller creates suction that moves water through the system. These pumps offer excellent efficiency at a reasonable cost and need very little ongoing maintenance, making them perfect for sump applications.
- Positive Displacement Pumps: These pumps trap water in chambers and force it through using pressure. They handle high-pressure situations without losing efficiency and provide dependable long-term service.
- Jet Pumps: High pressure builds quickly as an impeller pulls water into a pressurized chamber. These pumps deliver strong performance while keeping energy costs manageable.
- Vacuum Pumps: Creating low pressure inside pipes generates suction for moving water to specific locations. They run efficiently on either electric or mechanical power and provide years of reliable operation.
Why Valves Fail and What to Watch For
Valves regulate the pressure and flow that keep your pump system working correctly. Quality valves hold up well over time, but constant use and age eventually cause wear. Recognizing early warning signs like unusual noises or vibration helps you address valve issues before they become serious problems.
Book ServiceThe Most Frequent Causes of Valve Failure:
- Installation errors or wrong valve sizes – Valves that don’t match your system requirements or were installed improperly create weak spots that limit water flow and reduce system performance.
- Lack of regular maintenance – Debris and mineral deposits build up inside valves over time. Without periodic cleaning during tune-ups, this buildup prevents proper operation and eventually causes failure.
- Degraded sealing materials – The elastomer rings inside check valves that prevent backflow wear out as they age. Once these seals fail, water leaks through and the entire valve needs replacement.
When you notice your valves or pump aren’t working right, contact Trailblazer Plumbing for prompt service.
