Grundfos Pumps Repair and Maintenance

At its most basic, a pump is a simple mechanical device that moves liquid. A partial vacuum is created by dispelling air, causing a difference of pressurization. This provides the path for the fluid to move, since liquid will naturally travel towards a lower pressured environment.

The simplicity of this basic principle, belies the absolute indispensability of pumps in a wide variety of industries. Pumps are used in water and wastewater, chemical, oil and gas, and power generation.

Grundfos, a Danish firm, created their first water pump in 1945 — a positive displacement pump using pistons to pump water from wells up to 7 meters deep. Since then, pump technology and the industry has grown hugely in sophistication to meet the world’s ever increasing complexity and need for water/fluid circulation systems. Grundfos has been one of the world leaders in pump innovation and now serves over 130 countries. 

Grundfos manufactures a wide diversity of pumps — seventeen categories of them — for water and wastewater applications and industrial, agricultural, and building services. Grundfos is valued for their efficient, reliable, and sustainable pump solutions. As a company, Grundfos works hard to make the world a better place by reducing its footprint and by helping to bring safe drinking water to the areas of the world that lack it.
