What is a Submersible Bore Pump?
A submersible bore pump is a type of water pump designed to operate underwater inside a bore or well. Unlike surface pumps, submersible pumps are installed deep inside the bore casing and push water upward to the surface through a rising main.
This design provides several key advantages:
- Higher efficiency compared with surface pumps
- Reliable performance for deep groundwater extraction
- Reduced noise and vibration
- Protection from environmental exposure
- Long service life when installed correctly
Submersible bore pumps are commonly used across agriculture, irrigation, rural water supply and groundwater extraction systems throughout Australia.
Applications for Bore Water Pumps in Australia
Bore pumps play a critical role in water supply across regional Australia where properties rely on groundwater for everyday operations.
Farm Irrigation Systems
Submersible bore pumps provide reliable water delivery for crop irrigation, vineyards, orchards and large agricultural properties. A properly sized pump ensures consistent water pressure across irrigation networks.
Livestock Water Supply
Many Australian farms depend on bore pumps to supply water troughs for cattle, sheep and livestock operations.
Residential Bore Water Systems
Homeowners across WA frequently install bore pumps to supply garden irrigation, lawn watering and household water systems.
Commercial Water Systems
Commercial properties and facilities often use bore pumps as part of large water pressure systems or groundwater extraction setups.
Choosing the Right Bore Pump for Your Property
Selecting the correct submersible bore pump requires careful consideration of several factors.
Bore Depth
Different pumps are designed to operate at specific depths. Some bore pumps are suited for shallow bores around 30 metres, while others can pump water from depths exceeding 100 metres.
Water Flow Requirements
The pump must deliver enough flow to support your irrigation system, water storage tanks or commercial application.
Bore Diameter
Submersible pumps must fit inside the bore casing. Common bore diameters in Australia include 100mm and 150mm casings.
Power Supply
Submersible bore pumps can operate using:
- Single phase power
- Three phase power
- Solar pumping systems
Many rural properties choose solar bore pumps for off-grid water pumping.
High Quality Bore Pumps Built for Australian Conditions

- bore depth
- water level
- required flow rate
- irrigation system design
- electrical supply
Our experienced team works with farmers, contractors, irrigation specialists and property owners across Western Australia to ensure every bore pump installation performs reliably.
Bore Pump Installation and Maintenance
Proper installation is critical for the long-term reliability of a submersible bore pump.
Installation typically includes:
- pump and motor installation inside the bore
- rising main pipe connection
- electrical cable installation
- pump controller or pressure system setup
- water pressure testing
Routine maintenance ensures the pump system continues operating efficiently for many years.

Learn about our Pumpshop
A submersible bore pump is an electric water mover built to sit underwater inside a well or borehole, working quietly out of sight to pull groundwater up for homes, farms, or factories.
Most household units handle depths between 20 metres and well past 150 metres. Always match the pump to your bore depth and the flow you need.
First, measure your bore depth, test its yield, then note the pressure and flow your taps or hoses expect. An expert can plot a pump curve and suggest the exact model so you don’t waste energy or miss water.
Installed properly and serviced on schedule, a good submersible pump can run 8 to 15 years-or even more. Water grit, power spikes, and the number of hours it cycles all play a part in its lifespan.
Keep an eye on flow, check pressure, tighten wiring, and briefly test the pump every month. Once a year, let a pro inspect it so small wear or electrical faults don’t sneak up on you.
Low water in the bore, a tripped breaker, frayed wiring, a blocked intake screen, or the pump giving up can all stop flow. Turn power off and ring a qualified technician before poking around yourself.
Absolutely not it ruins bearings and seals in minutes. Fit a dry-run alarm or low-water cut-out so the system protects itself when levels drop.
Build the bore with a fine-screen casing that stops coarse material. Add a quality suction filter or sand trap so grit can’t slide past the first line of defence and grind the pump.
Most home units draw between 0.5 kW and 3 kW or a little more for demanding jobs. Pumps running flat out all day, or lifting water long distances, chew through even more power.
Yes, you really should hire a pro to fit the pump. A qualified installer matches the right size, hooks up the power safely and adds protection gear so the system runs without drama for years.
