FYI (facts)
What to do when your alarm is sounding?
We suggest going out to your pump station to see if your pump is running constantly or not at all. Your control panel has a silencer for the alarm that you can shut off. Call MPE to further troubleshoot your problems.
Why does my station have strong odor and what can I do about it?
Your station may not be operating properly. By adding odor eating chemicals, such as chlorine, this could help eliminate your odor problem.
Do we do generator work?
Yes, we sell and install Guardian generators.
What is the best option for going green with my pump station?
Pumps are going green with Variable Frequency Drives (VFD). VFD pump stations can save you up to 50% of your energy cost and actually pay for itself within 2 years or less in most cases. As water is used, the speed increases or decreases upon demand, therefore making the line pressure stay constant. This is great for either domestic, commercial or aquaculture applications.
Why does my station keep clogging?
Sewage systems are designed to handle human waste and a moderate amount of toilet paper, here is a guide to better your station:
- Feminine pads of any kind - even if they say "flushable" should never be flushed into the system. Cotton swabs, cotton balls, condoms, tampons or tampon applicators, disposable wipes, razors, disposable diapers, baby wipes and paper towels should NOT be flushed into the system.
- Using the toilet for trash disposal of paper goods, haircut trimmings, food, rags, plastic of any kind, etc, will cause the pump station to have problems or fail completely if the items are suctioned into the volute of the pump.
- Pouring solvents, paint, thinner, grease, oil or abrasive chemicals can cause cord damage to the pump.
- If underwear or a rag is accidentally flushed into the system, call our office at (760) 744-1895 and we will send out a serviceman that day to clean & service the system.
Testimonial
I would like to thank you for the professionalism and integrity both Jaime and Jessey have. They came out and inspected the situation and double checked everything. They took the time to explain what they were doing and explained how everything worked. They put everything back together.
We originally thought we would have to get a new pump but with their expertise and honesty they were able to fix the problem. I really appreciated doing business with this company. Any further problems we may have we will be calling you.
Thank you again.
