Gravity vs Pressure Sewer Pump Stations: What’s the Difference?

If you’re planning a sewage system and not sure which pump station is the right fit, here’s the lowdown:

1. Gravity Sewage Pump Station

How it works: These stations pump sewage through a rising main directly into a manhole or entry point in the system.

What’s required? No boundary kit needed – simple, efficient, and straight to the point.

Perfect for: Sites with a direct connection to the sewage network.

2. Pressure Sewer Pump Station

How it works: These are used when multiple pump stations feed into a shared rising main.

What’s required? A boundary kit is necessary for easy maintenance and to stop cross-contamination.

Perfect for: Complex setups where several pumps need to work in harmony.
