How Does the Water Pump Run?
​
Jet water pumps are run by electricity. The pump comes with an electric motor that is responsible for powering the centrifugal pump or the impeller. The impeller is tasked with moving water from the source to its destination.
Generally, the motor is responsible for determining the amount of water that can be pumped at a particular time and at what speed.
However, the impeller also plays its part as well. It can constrict accordingly in order to boost the speed to which water travels in the system. The impeller plays a similar role to that of the nozzle in a garden hose and it is very critical as it dictates how a water pump works.
In every case that the source of water is not as deep, a normal jet water pump should be able to do the job.
However, before using the water pump, you must first prime it to ensure that it has the necessary pressure needed to enhance free water flow. The pump also needs to have a 1-way check valve that ensures water does not flow back once pumped.
