Transfer Pumps for Moving Water Between Tanks and Systems

Transfer Pumps are designed to move clean water from one location to another, making them useful for tanks, reservoirs, irrigation systems, household supply, commercial sites and general water-transfer applications. They are often used where water needs to be shifted efficiently between storage points or delivered to another part of a property without requiring a dedicated high-pressure system.

Choosing the Right Transfer Pump

The right transfer pump depends on the water source, required flow rate, total head, pipe length and how quickly the water needs to move. A simple tank-to-tank application may only need moderate pressure, while longer pipe runs or elevated discharge points can require a pump with greater head capability. It is also important to consider whether the pump needs to self-prime or operate automatically.

Common Transfer Pump Types and Components

This category can include centrifugal pumps, multistage pumps, jet-style pumps and related water-transfer equipment. Depending on the setup, you may also need pump controllers, floats, filters, check valves, foot valves, pipework and suitable fittings. Brands such as Lowara, Grundfos, DAB, Ebara, Goulds and KSB offer options for different domestic, irrigation and commercial applications.

Compatibility with Your Water System

Compatibility matters across the whole Transfer Pump setup. The pump needs to suit the available power supply, pipe size, water source and the required flow and head. Suction conditions are also important for surface-mounted pumps, while valves, fittings and controllers should be selected to match the pump and system requirements.

Avoid Poor Flow and Unnecessary Pump Strain

Incorrect pump sizing, restrictive pipework, excessive lift or poor suction conditions can reduce flow and make the pump work harder than necessary. These issues can lead to slower transfer, pressure loss or unnecessary wear. Matching the pump to the actual duty helps maintain reliable performance.

Frequently asked questions

Transfer Pumps are used to move clean water from one location to another, such as between tanks, reservoirs, storage systems or different parts of a property. They are commonly used for irrigation, household water movement, commercial applications and general tank-to-tank transfer.

The current range includes products from brands such as Lowara, DAB, Ebara, Goulds, Grundfos and KSB.

A Transfer Pump is mainly designed to move water from one point to another, while a Pressure Pump is usually selected when the system needs water delivered and maintained at a usable pressure for taps, sprinklers or irrigation zones.

If your main goal is tank-to-tank movement, a transfer pump may be the simpler choice. If you need automatic pressure for household or irrigation use, a pressure pump may be more suitable.

Yes. Transfer Pumps can be used to move water from tanks or storage sources into an irrigation system, provided the pump can deliver the required flow and head.

Before choosing one, check the irrigation system’s pressure requirements as well as the distance and height the water needs to travel.

Start with the amount of water you need to move, the vertical lift, pipe length, pipe size and the required flow rate. You should also consider the suction conditions and whether the pump needs to be self-priming or automatically controlled.

The current Transfer Pumps collection includes jet, multistage and centrifugal-style options across a range of flow and pressure duties.

Not always. A basic Transfer Pump can be operated manually, but a controller or float can be useful when the pump needs to start and stop automatically based on demand or water level.

The Irrigation Hub also stocks pump controllers from brands including Bianco, DAB, Franklin, Grundfos and Lowara for different pump applications.
