Gusher Impeller Pump Repair

No matter the application, we know how important it is to keep your Gusher horizontal or vertical impeller pumps operating at top performance.

When equipment wears from extensive use, the most cost-effective alternative to replacing it is to repair it! The highly knowledgeable and experienced team at OTC Industrial Technologies can get your impeller pumps operating like new again with our Factory Certified repair services.

In this blog, we will explore the repair services we offer, and six reasons why opting for these services is a superior choice over replacing expensive pump equipment.

Our Expert Repairs for Horizontal & Vertical Impeller Pumps

While we offer a full range of overhaul and maintenance services for our Gusher impeller pumps, some of the most common types of repairs include:

  • Shafts - In time, shafts wear, making them not efficient, and affecting the performance of a pump.
  • Bearings - When bearings wear, a part's ability to freely move as it was designed becomes compromised. This creates undue stress on the rest of the machinery.
  • Seals - Properly functioning seals are critical to a pump's overall operation. When they fail, diminishing unit performance soon follows.
  • Gaskets - Worn gaskets can leak, causing loss of pressure and pump efficiency.

6 Benefits When Opting for Impeller Pump Repairs Over Replacement

Here are six advantages of having your Gusher horizontal and vertical impeller pumps repaired by OTC Industrial Technologies.

  1. Cost Savings - Repairing an impeller pump is far less costly than replacing an entire unit. Achieving substantial savings of 75% is possible through proper refurbishment of a pump instead of investing in a new one.
  2. Extended Pump Life - Repairing and maintaining an impeller pump will not only keep it operating at peak performance, but also extend its life for many years of reliable service.
  3. Factory Certified Repairs - Our team of knowledgeable and experienced technicians are factory trained to perform the highest level of quality repairs. When we repair your impeller pump, it is backed by our Certified Factory warranty.
  4. Part Inventory Warehouse - At our regionally located, Certified Repair centers, OTC Industrial Technologies maintains a full inventory of parts and components in our warehouse.  This enables proficient repairs for your impeller pump and swift return to operation, minimizing downtime. With regional repair locations stocked with inventory on the shelf, we prioritize your time and satisfaction, aiming for quick turnaround.
  5. Top Quality OEM Parts - Our repairs feature factory fresh, top quality OEM parts. While there are potentially less expensive replacement parts available elsewhere, we are committed to providing our customers the exact factory parts specifically designed for their impeller pumps.
  6. Environmental Sustainability - When impeller pumps are repaired instead of replaced, manufacturing resources are utilized only for producing the necessary number of new pumps needed. Viewed as a form of recycling for long-term use, this approach actively supports green environmental initiatives.
