Board approves $12,004 replacement pump for Delville No. 5 lift station
Summary
After reviewing a failed pump with a $10,004.40 rebuild estimate and a $12,004.17 replacement with warranty, the board voted to buy the new pump with a one-year warranty.
The board approved purchasing a new pump for the Delville No. 5 lift station after discussing repair and replacement costs.
Committee member reported water intrusion damaged the pump stator; repair was estimated at $10,004.40 while a new pump with a manufacturer warranty would cost $12,004.17. The committee recommended buying the replacement with the warranty. The chair moved to approve the purchase and a second was recorded; the board voted in favor.
When asked about warranty length, staff confirmed the warranty runs one year. Committee members praised the selected Xylem top-of-the-line pump, noting the district had received many years of service from the old unit pulled in 2009.
Staff will arrange procurement and install the new pump as authorized by the board. The board did not record additional financing actions tied directly to the pump beyond the purchase approval.
