Dewatering & Flood Pumps
Yes.
KDT provides dewatering and flood pumps, from 2-inch trash pumps to 6-inch and larger diesel pumps and electric submersibles, delivered with suction and discharge hose, set up, fueled and run on your site.
Typical configuration
- 2 in trash pump
- About 150–250 gpm, portable, gas or diesel (typical)
- 3 in trash pump
- About 250–400 gpm, portable (typical)
- 4 in pump

- Solids
- Larger trash pumps pass solids of about 2–3 in
- Hose
- Hard suction hose and layflat discharge hose, sized to the pump
Dewatering pumps move water from where it is to where it needs to go: flooded streets and basements, underpasses, excavations, lift stations that have lost power, and containment areas on a spill site. Trash pumps are sized by the diameter of the suction and discharge, and the bigger the size, the more water and solids they handle.
Small 2- and 3-inch trash pumps are portable and move a few hundred gallons a minute. Four- and six-inch diesel pumps on trailers or skids move water by the thousands of gallons a minute and pass sticks, mud and debris, and are the usual choice for flood and bypass work. Electric submersibles drop into a pit or sump where a surface pump can't reach.
KDT delivers the pumps with suction hose, layflat discharge hose and fittings, sets them up, keeps them fueled and running, and moves them as the water moves. On spill sites, pumps discharge to frac tanks or weir tanks instead of the ground.

Questions, answered.
Does KDT provide flood and dewatering pumps?
Yes. We supply trash pumps from 2-inch to 6-inch and larger, plus electric submersibles, with hose, setup, fueling and operators.
What size trash pump do I need?
It depends on how much water and how fast. A 2- or 3-inch pump suits basements and small areas; 4- and 6-inch pumps handle streets, large excavations and bypass work. Tell us the area and depth and we'll size it.
What's the difference between a trash pump and a regular water pump?
A trash pump is built to pass solids like sticks, leaves and mud without clogging. Clear-water pumps are for clean water only and will choke on floodwater.
Can pumps run overnight?
Yes. Diesel pumps run for long stretches on a tank, and we keep them fueled and checked so they keep running through the night.
