How to choose a borehole pump?

A borehole (deep well) pump is lowered into the borehole and lifts water up to the house. The right choice depends on the borehole's inner diameter (3-inch SQ and SQE for narrow wells, 4-inch SP for wider ones), the depth and the required flow.

Grundfos SQ is an all-in-one solution for a house well — the pump has built-in dry-running protection and soft start, so no separate control box is needed.

Grundfos SQE is the variable-speed version of the SQ: together with the CU301 control unit it keeps water pressure constant even when consumption varies (one tap or several at once).

For larger flows and heads — farms, big gardens, irrigation and industry — there is the Grundfos SP range, available in many capacities.

To compare borehole pumps with other Grundfos solutions, see the Grundfos borehole pumps selection guide on our homepage, with price ranges and advice for every series.

Frequently asked questions

Which borehole pump is best for a house well?+
For most house wells the best choice is the Grundfos SQ — a narrow 3-inch pump with built-in dry-running protection and soft start. If you want constant pressure even with varying consumption, choose SQE with the CU301 control unit.
How much does a borehole pump cost?+
The Grundfos SQ for house wells costs 741–1334 € and the SQE 810–1447 € depending on capacity in our range. The SP range for larger flows costs 694–2172 €.
What is the difference between Grundfos SQ and SQE?+
The SQ runs at fixed speed with all protection built in — no separate control box needed. The SQE is the variable-speed version which, with the CU301 control unit, keeps the water pressure exactly constant regardless of how many taps are open.
Does the SQ fit my borehole?+
The SQ's outer diameter is 74 mm, so it fits 3-inch (76 mm) and larger boreholes. Measure the borehole's inner diameter and depth — with those figures we can find the model giving the required head and flow.
Does the pump have dry-running protection?+
Yes — Grundfos SQ and SQE pumps have dry-running protection built in: if the well runs out of water, the pump stops automatically and protects itself from damage.
From how deep can a borehole pump lift water?+
The head depends on the model: the SQ and SQE selection includes pumps with heads up to 150 m. The right model is chosen by borehole depth, water level and required flow — we help with the selection free of charge.
