Sparkle Plastic Water Pump Cover With Cooling Vents

The Sparkle Pumps polyethylene water pump cover comes in a one-size fits most configuration. It consists of a two piece design including a very sturdy base and lid that adjoins giving it a strong hold. The strong structural design allows the water pump cover to be installed on almost any, semi stable ground or platform.

The water pump cover is stylish in design and comes in the colour beige. The Beige colour allows it to suit all applications and look aesthetically pleasing to all who can see it.

The cover being made from poly plastic means that it is UV stabilised and can withstand the harsh Australian environment with the plastic becoming brittle and thus reducing the appearance and protection it provides to the pump inside.

The dimensions of it (640mm long x 340mm wide x 601mm) allows it to fit over pressure pump system, water switching system or water transferring pump easily. It will not fit over any larger pool pumps and a pump house would be more applicable in this application. Also if a pressure or accumulator tank is installed in your application it would be best installed outside of the water pump cover.

The pump cover comes with stencilled cut outs to make the cover a) easier to cut and adjust to suit the pipework in your particular application; b) make sure your cuts are clean and allow the cover to look much neater after it is installed; and c) allow the cut outs to be made much closer to the pipe work and thus ensuring the noise generated by the water pump is kept inside the water pump cover to reduce the noise being released outside of the unit making the whole system work quieter. Which is helpful especially if you are flushing the toilet in the middle of the night and the pump sits outside a bedroom. This can also help with keeping the neighbours happy.

The pump cover amongst other things reduces noise but it also helps extend the life of your water pump. It does this in a few ways. First it protects the pump from having leaves and debris held around it. Having leaves sitting around a pump can affect it if a couple of ways. If the leaves are wet and held against the body of the pump it can cause corrosion around the mild steel motor housing. Or it can be a breeding ground for bugs and vermin. Secondly with the cooling vents it can protect the pump from the extreme heat that we get so regularly during the summer months of the year. And keeping the rain away during those colder months.

One other advantage of a pump cover is that it can be put on a water pump at any time. Either during or after a pump has been installed.

As with all Sparkle Pumps products the water pump cover is cover by a nationwide warranty but you are pretty safe as once it is in place there really isn’t much that can go wrong with it.
