Tool Tuesdays - know your tools! (Water Pump)

A water pump is a machine used to increase the pressure of water in order to move it from one point to another. Modern water pumps are used throughout the world to supply water for municipal, industrial, agricultural, and residential uses. Water pumps also are used to move wastewater in sewage treatment plants.

HOW THEY WORK

Water pumps use a piston or a turbine to produce a partial vacuum to draw the water out of the well. The same piston or turbine is then used to increase the pressure of the water. This pressure, in turn, pushes the water out of the pump and down the pipes.
