Hydrogeological Assessments
Igne’s hydrogeological assessments evaluate groundwater availability, yield, and impact, supporting borehole feasibility, abstraction licensing, and sustainable water supply design.
Pump Installation
A well-designed borehole system requires the right pump installation to deliver a consistent and efficient water supply.
About
Borehole Booster Pumps
Whether for domestic, agricultural, or industrial use, borehole booster pumps ensure water reaches where it is needed with the correct pressure and flow rate.
At Igne, we provide expert borehole pump installation services, ensuring that your system is set up for optimal performance, longevity, and energy efficiency. From selecting the right pump to professional fitting and ongoing maintenance, Igne delivers complete turnkey solutions for borehole pump installation.
Eliminating Risks
Why is Borehole Pump Installation Important?
Proper pump installation is crucial to the long-term success of a borehole water system. A poorly installed or incorrectly sized pump can lead to inadequate water pressure, affecting supply reliability and borehole lifespan.
Excessive wear and tear, leading to frequent breakdowns and costly repairs is another risk – as is high energy consumption, increasing operational costs.
Reduced pump lifespan, requiring premature replacement and airlocks and flow inefficiencies, causing water delivery issues are additional risks of not having a proper installation done.
By ensuring the correct pump installation, you maximise efficiency, extend system lifespan, and prevent unnecessary costs.
The Process
The Borehole Pump Installation Process
We follow a structured installation process to ensure your borehole pump operates optimally from day one:
1. System Assessment & Pump Selection
- Analysing borehole depth, water yield, and required pressure.
- Recommending the most suitable pump type and size for efficiency and longevity.
- Ensuring compatibility with existing pipework and power supply.
2. Professional Installation & Commissioning
- Positioning the pump at the correct depth to maximise performance.
- Installing necessary pipework, control systems, and pressure tanks.
- Wiring electrical components safely and ensuring compliance with UK regulations.
- Conducting performance tests to confirm smooth operation.
3. Testing & Performance Optimisation
- Checking flow rates, pressure output, and system efficiency.
- Adjusting pump settings to match demand and prevent overuse.
- Ensuring the system is free from airlocks, leaks, or electrical faults.
4. Ongoing Maintenance & Servicing
- Regular inspections to prevent unexpected failures.
- Cleaning and descaling components to maintain efficiency.
- Replacing worn parts before they cause breakdowns.
Pump replacement
Signs That Your Borehole Pump Needs Replacement or Servicing
- Loss of Pressure: this indicates blockages, pump wear, or motor failure.
- Intermittent Operation: which could be due to electrical faults or system airlocks.
- Unusual Noises: grinding or clicking sounds suggest mechanical damage.
- Increased Energy Usage: a struggling pump may be consuming more power than necessary.
- Water Supply Issues: discoloured water, air in the pipes, or fluctuating flow indicate problems.
