Pacer Pumps

Pacer Pumps High performance, corrosion proof, self-priming pumps built from molded, thermoplastic components since 1974.

In 1974, Pacer Pumps' founder acted on his idea that a plastic, lightweight, low-cost self-priming centrifugal pump would make a viable alternative to the metal pumps of the day. As the idea of a plastic pump took hold, Pacer became the leading name in the industry. As part of the ASM Industries family, Pacer has full control over the manufacturing of its products, as the plastic parts are injecti

on molded by our sister company, Polymar, which is located just a few miles from our headquarters in Lancaster, PA.

Marine Water Transfer Pumps

Saltwater finds every weak point in a pump.

Marine work runs pumps hard. Dewatering flooded compartments, bilge and recirculation tanks, deck and net wash down. Salt, motion, and constant duty decide how long the equipment lasts, and material choice decides most of that.
Pacer molds pump housings from thermoplastics rather than casting them from iron. We have built self-priming centrifugal pumps that way in Lancaster, Pennsylvania since 1974.

Worth reading before you specify anything. Under 46 CFR 182.520, each fixed power bilge pump on a covered vessel must be self-priming, must connect permanently to the bilge manifold, and must be able to pump from every watertight compartment. The full text sits on the eCFR site. Check the rule against your vessel class, and confirm that any pump you are considering meets it.

Hurricane Season Preparedness

The Atlantic hurricane season peaks on September 10.

That is NOAA's climatological peak, with most activity falling between mid-August and mid-October. The season itself runs through November 30.

If your storm plan involves moving water off a property, settle the details before the sky turns:

-Where the water collects, and how far it sits below where a pump would stand

-How far you need to move it, and where it goes

-What power you have if the grid drops: gas, electric, or tractor hydraulics

-Whether the hose, fittings, and suction strainer are on the shelf and in one piece

A self-priming centrifugal pump sits above the water line and pulls its own prime, which matters when there is nowhere dry to set a pump down.

NOAA's National Hurricane Center publishes the full tropical cyclone climatology.

Peak season is August through October.

The pump you need in September is the one you bought in August. We learned that from Katrina and Sandy, when Pacer pumps pulled millions of gallons out of flooded basements β€” and from every call that came in three days too late.

Four things. Do them this week.
Run the pump. Prime it, load it, confirm the seals hold. Do not discover a problem at 2 a.m. in six inches of water.

Measure your hose. Discharge distance matters as much as intake. Water has to end up somewhere useful.

Stock fuel and a rebuild kit. Parts do not ship during a regional emergency.

Know how your power fails. Gas, electric, and hydraulic drives each quit differently when the grid goes down.

Thermoplastic does not corrode sitting idle. Store it now, use it later.

Trending Topic β€” "Why More Operators Are Going Electric"

⚑ Fuel prices may be easing lately, but plenty of operations are still taking a closer look at electric-motor-driven pumps β€” and it's not just about the price at the pump.

If you're running pumps day in and day out, electric can be worth a serious look.

A few reasons operators make the switch:
No fuel to buy, haul, or store
Fewer moving parts and less routine maintenance than a gas engine
Quieter operation β€” easier on the crew and the neighbors
Consistent, reliable power wherever you've got a hookup

Gas and electric each have their place, and the right choice depends on your setup β€” but for the right operation, electric brings efficiency and simplicity that hold up no matter which way fuel prices swing.

Not sure which fits your operation? Your local Pacer distributor can help you match the right pump to the job.

πŸš’ Water hauling is a frontline tool in wildfire response.

From firefighters to ranchers to rural property owners, moving water quickly to where it's needed is critical. If wildfire is a risk in your area, build these into your plan:
-Position water storage where a pump can reach it easily
-Choose a pump that can fill trailers and tanks fast
-Have a route mapped for refilling from your nearest reliable source
-Keep intake screens clear to protect the pump from debris
-Assign who does what before an emergency, so response is quick
-Preparation now means faster action when conditions turn.

Molded and assembled right here in the U.S.A.

There's a lot of pride in a sight like this β€” a full line of Pacer transfer pumps built start to finish in America. From molding to final assembly, our pumps are made by American hands, and we wouldn't have it any other way.

When you run a Pacer pump, you're running quality that was designed, molded, and assembled in the U.S.A. β€” and backed by a team that stands behind every one.

Proud to be an American company. πŸ’ͺ
