When it comes to water management, size matters — but so does accuracy. A pump that’s too small can cause downtime, flooding, or failed drawdown. Too big, and you burn unnecessary fuel, blow through budget, and wear out equipment faster than the job lasts. At Academy Water , we help estimators and project leads size pumps properly from day one — using field-tested logic, not guesswork. Here’s how we approach it. Start with Flow, Not Fear Before picking horsepower or pipe size

Pump sizing shouldn’t be guesswork. A small mistake at bid stage can snowball into blown budgets, change orders, and frustrated crews. The good news? With a streamlined approach to flow, head, and efficiency, you can tighten your estimates and reduce risk right from the start.

At Academy Water, we’ve spent decades keeping systems running through Western Canada’s harshest winters. Freeze protection isn’t just about adding heat—it’s about planning, discipline, and experience. Here’s how we keep pumps and lines flowing when the mercury plunges below -20°C.
