Pump and Blower Rentals: Temporary Pump and Blower Rental
Temporary trash, submersible, and process pumps plus industrial blowers for bypass, dewatering, aeration, and shutdown work, sized to your job.
Can I rent an industrial pump or blower in the Upper Midwest?
Yes. Brabazon rents temporary pumps and industrial blowers across the Upper Midwest, from trash and submersible pumps for bypass and dewatering to process pumps and aeration blowers for shutdowns and peak flow. Renting fits any temporary or urgent need: a bypass while a pump or station is repaired, a dewatering project, or backup process air while a blower is serviced. We size the unit to your flow, head, and duty, then support it locally. Call 800.825.3222 for availability.
Pump rentals: bypass, dewatering, and transfer
Temporary pump rental keeps liquid moving when your permanent equipment cannot. We rent solids-handling trash and self-priming pumps for sewage bypass and dirty-water work, submersible pumps for dewatering excavations and sumps, and process transfer pumps for moving product during maintenance. The right rental depends on the fluid: a bypass around a failed lift station needs a solids-handling pump and enough head for the discharge run, while clean-water dewatering can use a simpler unit. Tell us the application and an engineer specifies the pump along with the hose or piping to go with it.
Blower rentals: aeration and process air
Temporary blower rental keeps aeration and conveying processes running while your unit is out for service. At wastewater plants this matters most, because aeration cannot simply stop without risking the biological process, so a rental blower sized to your airflow and pressure holds dissolved oxygen during the repair. We also rent blowers to bridge conveying and process-air needs during shutdowns and peaks. The rental is sized to the same flow and pressure duty as the permanent equipment so performance does not drop.
When a pump or blower rental is the right call
Renting avoids buying equipment for a temporary need, and keeps production moving when permanent equipment is down. Common scenarios include:
- Bypass during repair: keeping flow moving while a lift station or process pump is pulled and rebuilt.
- Dewatering: construction excavations, tank cleaning, and maintenance work that needs temporary pumping.
- Backup aeration: holding a treatment process while a plant blower is serviced.
- Seasonal or peak flow: handling a temporary increase that does not justify a permanent unit.
- Shutdowns and turnarounds: temporary pumping or process air during scheduled maintenance.
Equipment categories behind our rentals
Our rental units come from the same equipment families we supply and service. Match your need to a category:
- Trash and self-priming pumps
- Submersible dewatering and sewage pumps
- Lift station pumps
- Rotary lobe and process blowers
Pair a rental with our pump repair, lift station repair, or blower repair service to get your permanent equipment back fastest.
Industries we rent into
Pump and blower rentals support the operations that cannot pause when equipment goes down. We rent into:
- Wastewater treatment bypass pumping and backup aeration
- Mining and construction dewatering and site pumping
- Manufacturing shutdown, transfer, and peak-flow needs

Pump and blower rental questions, answered first
What pumps and blowers can I rent?
You can rent temporary trash and self-priming pumps, submersible dewatering and sewage pumps, and process transfer pumps, plus industrial blowers for aeration and conveying. We match the rental to the job by flow, head, solids, and duty rather than handing over a generic unit, so a bypass around a failed lift station gets a very different pump than a clean-water dewatering task.
When does renting a pump or blower make sense?
Rent when the need is temporary or urgent: a bypass while a lift station or process pump is repaired, dewatering for a construction or maintenance project, seasonal or peak flow that does not justify a permanent unit, or backup aeration during blower service at a treatment plant. Renting avoids buying equipment you will only use for a defined period, and it keeps the process running while permanent equipment is down.
How do you size a rental pump for a bypass or dewatering job?
We size it the same way we size a permanent pump: from flow, total head, the solids in the fluid, and how long it must run. A sewage bypass needs a solids-handling trash or submersible pump with the right head for the discharge run, while clean-water dewatering can use a simpler self-priming unit. Tell us the application and an engineer specifies the pump and the hose or piping that goes with it.
Can I rent a blower while mine is being repaired?
Yes. Temporary blower rental keeps aeration and conveying processes running while your unit is out for service, which matters most at wastewater plants where aeration cannot simply stop. We match the rental blower to the flow and pressure your process needs so dissolved oxygen or conveying performance holds during the repair. Pair it with our blower repair service to get the permanent unit back fastest.
Do you rent air compressors too?
Yes, but through a separate program. Air compressor, dryer, and vacuum rentals are covered on our air compressor rental hub, while this page covers pump and blower rentals. If you need compressed air rather than liquid pumping or process air, start with the compressor rental page linked below and an engineer will route you to the right equipment.
