Frequently Asked Question: Lift Station Installation

A lift station is a pumping system that moves wastewater from lower to higher elevations when gravity flow isn’t possible.
A sump pump removes groundwater from basements or crawl spaces to prevent flooding, while a lift station moves sewage or wastewater from lower elevations up to the main sewer or septic system.
Most residential installations take 1–3 days, depending on complexity and permits.
Yes, we coordinate with your county and ensure compliance with NC wastewater codes.
With proper maintenance, most lift stations last 15–25 years before major replacement is needed.
Yes, we handle both residential and commercial lift station projects.
Lift stations consist of pumps, pipes, valves, and control systems. When wastewater levels in a collection pit or sump reach a certain point, float switches activate the pumps. The pumps then push the wastewater through pipes to a higher elevation or treatment facility.
Lift stations commonly use submersible pumps or centrifugal pumps. Submersible pumps are placed underwater within the sump or pit, while centrifugal pumps use rotating impellers to move wastewater.
Some lift stations handle both sewage and stormwater, while others are sewage-only. In the Charlotte and North Charlotte area, design depends on local codes, system capacity, and site needs.
