Could your pumps be costing you thousands in wasted energy and inefficiency? This is a natural occurrence as pumps become older and modern pumping systems now have several features which make them more efficient.
With energy prices continuing to increase and businesses becoming more aware of their impact on the environment, there has never been a better time to have a pump energy check.
A pump energy check from Mawdsleys gives you an accurate view of your current pump performance and if any savings could be made in terms of energy usage by upgrading to a newer, more efficient pump.
One of the most common pumping systems where significant savings can be made is booster pumping systems which are generally found in larger buildings such as flats, apartments, leisure centres, hotels, healthcare, government buildings, schools and more.
- Environment – Pumps are responsible for approximately 10% of the world’s electricity consumption. This is contributed to by many pumps that are running inefficiently or being wrongly sized resulting in wasted energy. A more efficient pump reduces your impact on the environment.
- Cost Savings – Reducing the amount of energy your pumps use by ensuring they run efficiently can save you thousands and upgrading will usually pay for itself over time.
- Optimal Pump Choice – An energy check will determine whether the pump being used is the right size and model for the job, this provides benefits in terms of energy usage and performance.
- Customer Satisfaction – Having the right pump for the job reduces the risk of underperformance and ensures everything works as expected for your building users.
Following the visit, our engineers will provide you with a full report advising on the condition of the installation with advice on any required upgrades. Any required upgrades or improvements can be tied in with a pump service contract to meet your budget.

Variable Speed Drives (VSDs)
VSDs are now fitted to many modern pumps, these drives use pressure and flow sensors to adapt pressure to demand. This means you only pay for what you use.
High Efficiency
Modern pumps are generally more efficient, meaning you benefit from lower energy usage and therefore lower energy bills without any performance drops
Reliable
Modern pumping systems tend to be more reliable and are at far less risk of breakdown vs. an older pumping system.
