Why is my Carver Pump RSA Water Pump using excessive power?
- CCheryl BarnesAug 9, 2025
Excessive power consumption in your Carver Pump Water Pump can be attributed to several factors. The head might be lower than the rating, causing it to pump too much liquid. The specific gravity or viscosity of the liquid might be too high. There may be mechanical defects like binding rotating elements, or the system head might be lower than the design condition. An incorrect impeller diameter could also be the cause. To resolve this, adjust pressure flow, check the liquid temperature, and inspect for pipe strain. Also, check the foundation bolting and replace any defective parts. Adjust the system head or trim the impellers to the actual condition. If needed, replace the impeller or trim it to the correct diameter, consulting with Carver Pump before trimming.
