"Syphoning" in pump stations occurs when liquid is pulled by gravity from the station to the discharge point, bypassing the pump. This happens due to elevation differences between the pump station and the discharge location, leading to operational challenges. Addressing syphoning, its causes, and prevention is essential for maintaining pump station reliability and longevity.

Effective stormwater management is vital in homes with basements to prevent flooding and structural damage. A basement sump pump handles internal water, while a DrainAce stormwater pump station manages external runoff. Together, they safeguard homes from flooding and ensure reliable water management inside and out.
Pump stations are crucial components that help to pump and transport sewage, wastewater, and stormwater from low-lying areas to higher elevation areas where it can be treated and disposed of safely. However, maintaining pump stations' optimal performance is not an easy task. They can experience issues such as blockages, equipment failures, and power outages.

In larger commercial developments, there is often the requirement for one or more pump stations when liquid is unable to be discharged under gravity. These devices act as a holding chamber to collect stormwater, sewage or another wastewater. The pump stations then transport the waste for reuse or disposal by utilising transfer pumps.
