Refurbished Pumps

Refurbished pumps bring you greater savings

By Nikki Davis
We all know that refurbished pumps come with greater savings than buying new. What you might not realize, though, is that you can find a product that is just as good as the original in terms of quality.

Whether you are looking for used concrete pumps, refurbished gasoline pumps, refurbished vacuum pumps or other used industrial pumps, dealers are available to help you with your replacement or refurbishment needs.

To determine if buying refurbished pumps is right for you:

1. Ask yourself if you are purchasing for show or for efficiency. If you are buying for show, a new part or product may be what you need, but if are just looking for something to get the job done, a refurbished item will work.

2. Look at the warranties offered with used pumps and parts. If no warranty is offered and your product breaks right away, you are out of luck. A quality refurbisher should offer you some sort of warranty package to backup their level of service.

3. Determine if cost is a major issue for you. If it is, refurbished pumps should be the route to go for quality at an affordable price.

 

Find suppliers of refurbished pumps with perks

Instead of settling for just refurbished pumps, instead seek out a dealer that gives you some sort of added value. Look for free shipping or free warranties. Look for informative company websites that walk you through their refurbishment process or staff qualifications.
Try: Septic Solutions, Inc. has a wide variety of refurbished pumps, and they will purchase your old air pumps. They also have free shipping on most items and have a low price guarantee. GASO.com walks you through their process of refurbishment, which is a reassuring step for a company to offer a consumer or business client.

Look at the abounding number of used pumps for vacuums available

Used vacuum pumps are in high supply online. Find a reputable seller, and consider asking for references on their service.
Try: A&J Vacuum Services sells refurbished Surplus Turbo Pumps, Surplus Vacuum Pumps and other High Vacuum Equipment. They offer a 12-month warranty on all of their used pumps for sale. Capitol Vacuum Parts also sells refurbished vacuum pumps and parts. Edwards refurbishes their brand's own products. They fully decontaminate and inspect the product before fixing it with Edwards original parts. They factory-test it to make sure it meets "as new" specifications, and they sell it to you with a standard warranty.

Seek used industrial pumps from other businesses

Refurbished pumps also come in the form of used industrial pumps as well. Finding a company with too much inventory can be a win-win for both parties, as they come up with cash to buy their next big item, and you walk away with quality equipment at a fraction of the price. You can easily find used gas pumps, a used heat pump or refurbished water pumps.
Try: C&C Pumping Services, Inc. has an impressive fleet of refurbished boom pumps for sale. Their refurbished concrete pumps come with all of their maintenance records, and they can even paint it to match your color scheme. Kitmondo is an online marketplace for mining and aggregates equipment including used pumps for sale.

 

  • If you are buying used pumps from anyone other than a major manufacturer, look at return policies, warranties and other guarantees that the product will hold up to the claims they have made either verbally or in writing.
