Draper Submersible Water Pumps

Draper Submersible Water Pumps at Tooled-Up.com

Draper Submersible Water Pumps are built to move water from places where it isn't wanted, or where it needs to be drawn from. That covers flooded cellars, muddy excavations, ponds, water butts and deep wells. Tooled-Up.com stocks clean water pumps, dirty water pumps, dual-purpose models, pump kits and a deep well pressurising pump, so there is a suitable option for most pumping jobs.

The selection runs from compact models such as the Draper SWP120A and SWP130 Clean Water Pump up to heavier-duty dirty water pumps like the SWP330/1100 and SWP420. At the specialist end, the DSWP1000A Deep Water Well Pump is designed for boreholes and wells at depths up to 15 metres.

Key Features of Draper Submersible Water Pumps

• Clean and dirty water options: Dirty water pumps such as the SWP220, SWP260 and SWP420 are made for silty, gritty water on site. Clean water models suit tidier jobs such as emptying water butts, tanks and pools.
• Integrated float switches: The SWP150IFS and SWP220IFS switch on and off with the water level. You don't need to stand over the pump, and it won't run dry once the water has gone.
• Dual-purpose pumping: The SWP330/850 handles clean or dirty water and works as a puddle sucker, so it can clear the last of the water from a flat surface.
• Deep well performance: The DSWP1000A has a 1000W multistage motor and delivers up to 91 litres per minute. It suits jobs needing real lift or pressure.
• Power choices: Most models run from 240v mains. The SWP105A is a 110v version for site supplies where reduced voltage is required.
• Ready-to-use kits: The PTK/SUB1 and PTK/SUB3 kits bundle a pump with hose, so you can start pumping straight away.

Who Uses Draper Submersible Water Pumps?

Groundworkers and builders use the dirty water models to clear trenches, foundations and excavations after heavy rain. Plumbers and maintenance teams use them to drain cellars, plant rooms and sumps. Landscapers and gardeners can rely on them for emptying ponds, water features and tanks.

Homeowners and landlords also benefit, particularly those dealing with a flooded basement or garage. Anyone with a borehole, well or deep water source can use the DSWP1000A to bring water to the surface or supply it under pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I choose a clean or dirty water Draper pump?

Choose a dirty water model if the water contains silt, grit or small debris, as on most building sites and flooded cellars. Clean water pumps suit clear water only. If you need both, the SWP330/850 is designed for clean or dirty water.

Which Draper model has an automatic float switch?

The SWP150IFS and SWP220IFS have integrated float switches. They start pumping when the water rises and stop when it drops, which suits unattended drainage.

Can I use a Draper submersible pump on site?

Yes, but check the voltage. Most models run on 240v mains, while the SWP105A is a 110v pump for site power. Always use an RCD with any mains-powered equipment near water, and follow HSE guidance.

What can the Draper deep well pump be used for?

The DSWP1000A is built for boreholes, wells and other deep water sources, operating at depths up to 15 metres. Browse the full Draper selection at Tooled-Up to compare it with the standard drainage pumps.
