Pump Kits | Complete Pump Packages

Each kit is built around a problem to solve, not a pump to sell. We start from the job, whether that is clearing flood water, emptying a swimming pool, dewatering a building site, transferring water from a tank or watering the garden, and use our experience specifying pumps to work out what actually does it.

From there we match the pump to the job, choose the hose for how it will be used, and add the fittings, connections and accessories that go with it. You get a complete, worked-out combination rather than a pump and a pile of parts to sort out yourself.

Pick the kit for the problem you need to solve. We have already done the thinking behind it.

For removing water from garages, cellars, basements, utility rooms, lightwells and other areas affected by flooding. Many of these kits use low-level or puddle pumps that can remove water down much further than a conventional submersible pump.

For occasional flooding you will be present to deal with, a manual pump may be all you need. Where water can arrive while nobody is there, an automatic pump is usually the better choice.

For construction sites, excavations, trenches, foundations and general dirty-water pumping. These applications normally need tougher pumps capable of coping with grit and debris, together with hose that is easy to deploy and withstands repeated use.

Some kits combine reinforced hose for awkward sections with layflat hose for longer runs across open ground.

A useful option where there is no convenient mains electricity. Petrol pumps sit outside the water and draw it through a suction hose, so the setup needs more than just the pump. The suction hose must be reinforced so it does not collapse, a strainer helps protect the pump, and a suitable delivery hose is needed on the discharge side.

Our petrol kits bring those components together as a complete pumping setup.

For emptying swimming pools, hot tubs, spas and other relatively clean-water applications. Using a pump can be considerably quicker than relying on the built-in drain, while low-level pumps can also leave much less water behind at the bottom.

For moving stored water or using water from tanks, wells and rainwater systems. These applications often need more than high flow alone. Where water is being used for irrigation or sprinklers, the pressure available from the pump also matters.

Our kits are matched around the intended application, whether that is straightforward water transfer or supplying water for garden use.

Some jobs need something more specific. This includes pumps for narrow sump chambers, silty water, ponds, water features and other situations where a conventional general-purpose pump may not be the best fit. These kits bring together equipment chosen around the particular limitation or application.

A common mistake when buying a pump separately is concentrating on the pump and treating the hose as an afterthought. The two work as a system.

Using unnecessarily narrow hose increases resistance and can significantly reduce the flow from a powerful pump. Hose that is unsuitable for the route can also kink, collapse or simply make the pump awkward to use. That is why our kits match the hose to both the pump and the application.

If you need additional distance, we also supply pump hose, couplings and hose extension options separately.

Flood & Water Pumps is part of the FPS Group, and we have supplied water pumps and flood equipment from Nottinghamshire since 2012. Our range covers domestic, commercial and professional applications, with pumps from established manufacturers including Tsurumi, Honda, APP, EVAK, DAB and Stream.

More importantly, we approach pump selection from the application first. If a straightforward kit will do the job, we will help you find it. If the lift, distance, water conditions or installation make the application more complicated, our team can help establish what is actually required. That same practical approach is behind the FPS Engineered™ range.

Our pump kits start from a use case, not a specification. We have matched the common jobs to the right pump, hose and fittings, so you do not have to work it out yourself.

If you are unsure which kit fits, just tell us:

• what you are trying to achieve;
• what you are pumping;
• approximately how far the water needs to travel;
• approximately how high it needs to be lifted; and
• whether the pump needs to operate automatically.

From that, we can usually narrow the options down quickly.
