Water Pump Installation

Installation and servicing of domestic, booster, and borehole water pumps for reliable pressure.

Overview

Inconsistent water pressure can turn simple tasks like showering or washing dishes into a daily frustration. Dalo Plumbing Solutions brings reliable water pressure to homes and businesses across Nairobi with professional pump installation services. We install and service a wide range of water pumps, including domestic pressure boosters, whole‑house automatic pumps, borehole submersible pumps, and transfer pumps for tank filling. Our goal is to give you strong, steady water flow at every tap, 24/7. Choosing the right pump is critical. Too small, and it won’t raise pressure sufficiently; too large, and it may waste electricity, cause noise, or damage plumbing. Our technicians conduct a detailed assessment of your water source (municipal mains, borehole, or tank), the number of fixtures, and the existing pipe size. We then recommend a pump that matches your needs – from popular brands like Grundfos, Pedrollo, and Dayliff, which we trust for durability and local spares availability. Our installation process is thorough. We ensure the pump is mounted on a vibration‑damping pad to reduce noise, fit the correct non‑return valve and pressure controller, and wire it safely to a dedicated circuit with overload protection. For booster pumps on municipal supply, we include a low‑pressure cut‑off to prevent drawing air when the mains are dry. For boreholes, we size the submersible pump correctly and install a control box with dry‑run protection. We also retrofit automatic pressure controllers to existing pumps that may be running continuously, saving energy and extending the pump’s life. If you have an old, noisy pump that keeps tripping, our repair team can replace bearings, mechanical seals, or pressure switches on‑site. In many cases, a simple service restores full performance without the cost of a new pump. Our service doesn’t end with installation. We teach you how to monitor your pump’s performance, clean the pre‑filter, and reset the controller if needed. We also offer maintenance contracts that include quarterly checks, especially beneficial for apartment blocks and commercial buildings where downtime is costly.

Our Process

1

Water Audit & Pump Sizing

We test your water pressure, flow rate, and system demand to specify the perfect pump.

2

Quotation & Procurement

You receive a detailed quotation. Once approved, we source the pump and all necessary fittings.

3

Site Preparation

We install electrical points, build a weatherproof pump cover if outdoors, and lay vibration pads.

4

Pump Mounting & Plumbing

The pump is securely fixed, and pipe connections are made with isolation valves and unions for easy service.

5

Electrical Connection & Controls

Safe wiring with overload protection is completed, and automatic pressure controllers are configured.

6

Testing & Client Instruction

We run the pump through several cycles, fine‑tune pressure settings, and demonstrate correct operation.
