to crops, fields and pastures. Here at Burgess, when we refer to an \u201cirrigation\u201d pump, we are meaning and above ground or \u201ccentrifugal\u201d pump. They can come in many flavors and are usually from \u00bd HP (Horsepower) on up to about 10 HP for residential use. Irrigation pumps should be maintained regularly and many can be rebuilt once they start to go bad. Of course, starting with a quality product usually means a rebuild is possible while inferior products do not offer replacement parts and are simply \u201cthrow-aways\u201d. Higher end products manufactured by Berkeley, Sta-Rite, Goulds and Munro tend to need adjustments and packing to ensure they operate to full efficiency. This should be done each year at the start of water season. The higher quality pumps use cast iron cases, either stainless or brass impellers, and high quality, name brand motors which are replaceable and\/or repairable. Low quality products use plastic parts and plastic impellers with no name or foreign motors. Initially, the performance ratings may be similar, however after a short time, the lower end pumps tend to perform worse while the higher end models remain consistant. With irrigation pumps, since they sit above ground, they do need winterization.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-9a7f358 elementor-section-content-middle elementor-section-full_width elementor-reverse-tablet elementor-reverse-mobile_extra elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"9a7f358\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-bce7c8c\" data-id=\"bce7c8c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f36d57a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f36d57a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Typical Residential \u201cJet\u201d Pump<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-029d9a9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"029d9a9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Jet Pumps mimic centrifugal\/irrigation pumps but they differ in that they create a larger amount of pressure (enough for household use) using a venturi. Jet pumps need priming and cannot draw water from depths lower than about 30ft. from the surface. This is why they are referenced as being for \u201cshallow wells\u201d only. Here in Idaho, many areas have water tables as high as a few feet and some have \u201cFlowing or Artesian\u201d wells where the water has pressure directly from the earth and will flow water over the top of a well casing if not stopped using a well seal. The main advantage to using a Jet pump is cost. They are typically less expensive to install and replace but they also come with a host of drawbacks. They can only produce 12-15 gallons per minute of water at the most and they only go up to 1-1\/2 HP. Jet pumps can be prone to freezing since they exist above ground so they must be kept warm enough and pass enough water through them in the winter to prevent a total shut down.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-5da52f5\" data-id=\"5da52f5\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f7fb155 e-transform elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f7fb155\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_transform_flipX_effect&quot;:&quot;transform&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"180\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/burgesspump.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/typ-res-jet-pump.webp\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-3538\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-1d41de2 elementor-section-content-middle elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1d41de2\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-a087f4e\" data-id=\"a087f4e\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-59a871c elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"59a871c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"180\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/burgesspump.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/ag-irrigation-pump.webp\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-3474\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-9001c6d\" data-id=\"9001c6d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-41732b1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"41732b1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Commercial Centrifugal (Or Irrigation) Pumps<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4d633d3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4d633d3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Simply put, these pumps are labeled more \u201cAgricultural\u201d or for \u201cCommercial Use\u201d because they are typically higher in horsepower and can pump lots and lots of water that a typical homeowner wouldn\u2019t need.

The pumps job is to recycle that water over and over again. If the catch basin for the recycled water is too shallow, or is unable to have a pump submersed into it, then we need another way to pump the water, hence the centrifugal waterfall pump.

There\u2019s a pressure control switch that exists in your plumbing that is wired either directly to your pump (in a 2 wire system) or through a control box (3 wire system). We term these type of systems as \u201cBang On \/ Bang Off\u201d systems. In essence, when the pressure in your water system drops below a certain threshold, say 40 psi, \u201cBang\u201d the pressure switch trips and tells the pump to start. Once the pressure in the lines builds up to say, 60 psi, \u201cBang\u201d, the pressure switch trips which tells the pump to stop. This process goes on all day unless no one is using water, which, theoretically, the systems pressure remains constant and the system remains off.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-136c04d elementor-section-content-middle elementor-section-full_width elementor-reverse-tablet elementor-reverse-mobile_extra elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"136c04d\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-9287107\" data-id=\"9287107\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2320df4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2320df4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Constant Pressure Drive (VFD) + Typically Small Tank<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8555746 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8555746\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In today\u2019s technology, many pumps are controlled with Variable Frequency Drives (VFD\u2019s) rather than the old pressure switch systems of the past.
