Jet pump vs. Submersible pump: Which one is better?

Some people may be wondering what type of pump to use for the area they need to pump water, given the size of their pond. This is especially true for pumping or drawing water from relatively deep ponds.

These pumps are intended for small-scale irrigation or sprinkler applications, agricultural, industrial, and household water supply. So, let's take a look at which type of pump to use: Jet pumps vs. submersible pumps. Which is better? We'll compare pumps that can pump water from similarly deep wells. Submersible pumps and jet pumps have distinct advantages, including:

1. Jet Pump

Single Jet pump

Double - Jet pump

• Available in both double-jet and single-jet pumps.

• Suitable for small ponds up to 2 inches.

• Adds additional pressure to the water circulation.

• Often comes with a control unit, making it convenient and easy to use.

• The pumps are installed on land, making them easy to maintain.

• Maximum suction depth is approximately 30-45 meters.

• The installation process is more complicated than that of a submersible pump.

2. Submersible Pump

Submersible pump

• Available with both regular household electricity and solar power.

• Available in a wider range of models and sizes than jet pumps.

• Suitable for ponds 3 inches and larger, and a wider range of sizes.

• Installation is relatively simple and straightforward.

• High water delivery capacity.

• Maintenance requires pulling the pump out of the pond.

Conclusion Jet pump vs. Submersible pump

Water level: If the water level is at the ground surface level not exceeding 9 meters, a jet pump will be more suitable. However, if the water level is between 9 and 30 meters deep, a deep well pump should be chosen because it can send higher and farther than a jet pump.

Water from the nozzle, which is under high pressure, will rush through a narrow channel of the pipe that has a neck shape (Venturi) and with the speed that rushes out of the nozzle, causing the surrounding water to flow along the water line through the neck shape pipe as well and flow into the suction line of another pump, such as a pipe pump or a centrifugal pump. Some of the water volume leaving the pump will be sent back into the new nozzle, while the rest will flow out for use.
