FAQ's

What does “self-priming” mean?

self-priming pump can clear air from the suction line and begin pumping automatically after the first fill—so it can sit above the water source without losing prime.

Do self-priming pumps need to be filled before use?

Yes—only the first time. After the initial fill, the pump recirculates liquid inside the casing and re-primes itself automatically.

Where are they used?

Irrigation systems, water transfer, job-site dewatering, washdown, fountains, truck tanks, sewage bypass, and any application needing suction lift.

How much suction lift can a self-priming pump handle?

Most handle ~20–25 ft of vertical lift depending on model, elevation, temperature, and suction line sizing.
