About RPS Water Pumps

RPS Water Pumps is a 100% American-owned and operated company of friendly water pump specialists. Our main shop is nestled in the middle of nowhere next to the train tracks in a stretch of Northern California farmland. Since 2023, our team has been focused on providing water pumping kits that are easy to install yourself - with all the parts and advice required to get you to that DIY (Do-it-Yourself) finish line. 

Before RPS Water Pumps, the typical consumer would battle unclear pricing hidden behind distributor markups and high installer fees. Most people just want to get the job done themselves - that’s why we put so much time, money, and thought into developing our kits. Each kit includes all the parts and components that make installing a water pump yourself a breeze. Our reading materials, manuals, videos and diagrams allow customers of all skill levels to install a water pump successfully the first time. To ensure your DIY install success, we also offer a direct line to talk with real humans! Our experienced pump engineers are here to answer your questions, help troubleshoot issues, or plan your pump installation.


How reliable are your pumps?


Some of you may be familiar with RPS Solar Pumps, our sister company. We started development of our first solar pumps in 2012 and after much testing and refinement, we launched our first solar pump for purchase in 2014. Over the years our customers continued to ask when we would release an AC pump, and in 2023 RPS Water Pumps was launched to give consumers even more options in how they can achieve water independence.  

Our in-house engineers develop and test all of the AC water pumps we carry. With all our pumps still working in the field since 2014, and ten major winter upgrades from our engineering team, we are confident we have the highest quality pump that you can install yourself on the market, and the only comprehensive DIY kit to make the whole process easy. We believe our customers’ decisions speak for themselves, with the majority of sales this past year coming from happy returning customers and their referrals.


How do you compare with other pump brands?


Consumers have lots of choices when it comes to AC-grid powered pumps. Pumps are a significant monetary investment, but not everyone can be a water pump expert - so how do they know if what they’re buying will really last, and the company they’re buying from will stand behind the product? Our team has over a decade's worth of experience building stainless steel submersible pumps that are made to last. Cheaply made plastic, brass, and mixed material pumps with sub-par motor technology just can’t compete with our pumps - and these cheap alternatives often fail within a year of minimal use.

Cutting out the middlemen (master distributors, distributors, and installers) in the process has decreased the cost of our systems without sacrificing quality.  We are able to eliminate the retail and middleman markups to invest in higher-quality materials, allowing us to pass on savings to our customers.

Are there cheaper pumps available? Like in most industries, we compete with lots of cheap products, both from the US and from Asia. Cheap brushed motors, flimsy plastic diaphragm pumps, and fake warranties are making a bad name for direct to consumer pumps. RPS has stayed strong and maintained our high standards, knowing that integrity, quality and reliability win in the end. Our reputation for our commitment to our quality products, warranty and honest, friendly and respectful support is why more customers continue to trust RPS.
