hello ! im looking for some info regarding a special type of pumps, i dont know their name but, to describe them, are like this. for a sandy soil with surface water. a lot of plastic pipes/tubes in the ground approx 0.5 apart, 4m in the ground all connected to motor pump sucking the water 24/7. thank you

if your after a pump to reduce surface water in the garden then you need field drains laid in pea gravel to divert the water to the lowest point in the garden connected to a deep plastic tub with a submersible pump that will activate on a float when the water is high and the water is then pumped into the main sewer.hope that answers your question
