Constant Pressure Water Systems in Western Canada
Steady Pressure, No Matter the Demand.
Sego sizes and supplies variable-speed constant-pressure systems that adjust pump output as water demand changes, helping maintain steadier pressure in homes, acreages, commercial buildings and other water-supply applications.
When Constant Pressure Makes Sense
Constant-pressure systems are most useful where water demand changes quickly and conventional on/off pumping creates noticeable pressure swings or excessive cycling.
A Home Where Everything Runs at Once
Showers, appliances and outdoor water use can overlap, causing noticeable pressure changes as system demand rises and falls.
What matters: Peak demand · Flow range · Pressure target
A Property With Long Runs or Elevation
Distance, elevation and piping losses can make it harder to maintain adequate pressure at remote buildings or demanding fixtures.
What matters: Elevation · Friction loss · Required pressure
A Building With Demand That Swings
Commercial and multi-use buildings can move quickly between low demand and multiple simultaneous water uses.
What matters: Demand range · Peak flow · Pressure stability
A Pump That Starts and Stops Too Often
Frequent cycling can increase wear and may indicate that the pump, pressure storage or control strategy does not match how the system is being used.
What matters: Cycling frequency · Minimum demand · System sizing
What Determines the Right Constant Pressure System?
A constant-pressure system has to match the pump, demand range and pressure requirements of the actual application.
01
Demand Range
How little and how much water the system may need to deliver as fixtures or equipment turn on and off.
02
Pressure Target
The pressure the system needs to maintain at the most demanding point.
03
Pump & Source Capacity
Whether the pump and available water source can support the required flow across the operating range.
04
Controls & Protection
How the drive, sensors and protection respond to changing demand and abnormal operating conditions.
Constant Pressure System Components
Constant pressure depends on the pump, drive, sensors and controls working together. Sego helps size and configure each component around actual system demand.
Variable-Speed Drives (VFDs)
Continuously adjust pump speed to maintain target pressure as demand changes.
Variable-Speed Pumps
Pumps selected for the flow, head and changing demand required by the system.
Pressure Sensors & Controls
Monitor system pressure and tell the drive how to respond as water use changes.
Pressure Tanks
Provide system stability and handle small water demands without unnecessary pump operation.
Protection & Monitoring
Dry-run, overload and fault protection help identify problems before equipment is damaged.
Packaged Systems
Complete pump, drive, control and pressure packages configured for simplified installation and operation.
