===Flow Rate testing===
===Flow Rate testing===
A simple flow rate measurement using a bucket, stopwatch and volume measurement device (e.g., graduated cylinder) at the [[outlet]] location can reveal whether the pump is functioning. Once the flow rate is measured the value can be compared to the design flow rate. If the pump is not creating sufficient pressure, then the flow rate will be inadequate. If the flow rate is below the design specification, servicing of the pump by a skilled technician should be scheduled.
