Pump Station Moves Wastewater at New Multifamily Development

At the intersection of Ford Avenue and Maryland Parkway in Las Vegas, a new multifamily project brought with it a familiar challenge: how to move wastewater when gravity won’t cooperate.

To maintain proper flow and connect to the municipal system, an alternative solution was required. Jensen provided a packaged pump station to collect, manage, and move all wastewater off-site.

With gravity flow off the table, the project needed a reliable way to move all wastewater generated on site. Flows had to be managed efficiently, with minimal retention time, to maintain system performance and avoid prolonged wastewater storage.

The solution also needed to perform reliably within a residential setting, handle daily demand, and meet durability requirements for parking lot traffic conditions.

A duplex pump station was installed to manage all wastewater from the site. The system features a 120” diameter wet well standing just over 23’ tall, designed to handle flows up to 1,305 gallons per minute and equipped with non-clog pumps.

All site wastewater is routed through the pump station, where it is collected briefly and pumped out on a regular cycle. The duplex configuration supports consistent operation during varying demand.

In addition to the pump station, a precast valve vault was provided to house system valves and controls. Designed for parking lot H-20 loading, the system delivers long-term durability for an active residential environment.
