Best Answer
  • Pumps consist basically of pressure vessels and equipments for supplying compressed air.
  • Concrete is delivered in to the pressure vessel and the vessel sealed tightly.
  • Compressed air is then supplied to the top of the vessel which pushes the concrete out through a pipe connected at the bottom.

The valve element includes a pair of transversely extending tubes and a pair of concrete guiding chambers. The valve element moves between two positions. In the first position a first guide chamber is opposite a first pump cylinder and guides concrete from an upright conduit associated with the first pump cylinder into the first pump cylinder and a first tube is opposite a second pump cylinder and guides concrete from the second pump cylinder into a discharge line associated with the second pump cylinder. At the second position a second guide chamber is opposite the second pump cylinder and guides concrete from an upright conduit associated with the second pump cylinder into the second pump cylinder and the second tube is opposite the first pump cylinder and guides concrete from the first pump cylinder into the discharge line associated with the first pump cylinder.

The higher the slump (usaly 100 to 150 slump or S2 to S3) the easyer it is for the pump to pump it. It also needs to be a 'pump mix' that has a height quantity of sand in it to prevent it from separating. Regards Colin

Concrete pool no main drain so how do you paint it?

If there is no drain at the bottom or connected to the pump unit then you will have to get or rent a pump. You can usually rent one at Home Depot or a rental place. Some of these pump can several hundred gallons an hour so it would be faster than trying to do this with the old siphoning method. Depending on the area of the country you live you dont want the water out of the pool for very long cause a low water table can actually push the concrete up without the weight of the water in it. This is the way we did it when I used to have a concrete pool and would have to have the liner fixed or replaced. I used a submersible pump so that it got down really close to the bottom on the pool. Good luck.
