Trash Pumps Products
Trash pumps are designed to handle large volumes of water that contain solids such as debris, sediment, or sludge. To ensure that the pump will not become clogged or damaged by these materials, it is important to wet prime the pump before use. Wet priming involves adding a small amount of water to the pump's intake port and then running the pump until water starts to flow from the discharge port.
