A 2-inch gasoline centrifugal trash pump, 2-inch electric submersible, small utility submersible and 50-foot discharge hose — for flooded crawl spaces, pool drain-downs, trench dewatering and North Texas storm cleanup.
Centrifugal or Submersible? Pick by the Situation
The two pump types solve genuinely different problems, and choosing wrong wastes a day.
2" Gasoline Centrifugal — $65/day
Sits on dry ground beside the water and draws through a suction hose. Because it is engine-driven, it needs no electricity at all — which is exactly why it is the pump people want after a storm knocks the power out, and the pump that works in an open field or on a raw job site. High flow rate, handles some suspended solids, and it can be moved from one problem to the next without a cord. It does need to be primed and kept within its suction lift limit above the water level.
2" Electric Submersible — $55/day
Goes down into the water and pushes from below, so there is nothing to prime and no suction limit to think about. Quiet, no exhaust, and safe to run inside a basement, crawl space or enclosed pit where a gas engine would be dangerous. Needs a reliable 110V circuit. This is the pump for flooded interiors, sump pits, pool and spa drain-downs and long unattended runs.
The small utility submersible at $20 per day handles the lighter end — a shallow flooded room, a window well, a water feature, a hot tub. And the 2-inch by 50-foot discharge hose at $8 per day is the part almost everyone forgets: a pump with nowhere to send the water is not much use, and you generally want enough hose to move the discharge well away so it does not simply drain back to where you started.
What DFW Customers Rent Pumps For
- Storm and flash-flood cleanup. North Texas gets intense, fast rainfall. Flooded garages, crawl spaces, basements, storerooms and low-lying yards drive most emergency pump rentals.
- Pool and spa drain-downs. Draining for resurfacing, repair, an acid wash or a full water change goes far faster with a rented pump than a garden-hose siphon.
- Trench and excavation dewatering. Keeping a footing trench, utility ditch or pier hole clear so you can actually work and pour.
- Plumbing and irrigation work. Emptying a line, a tank, a water heater or a broken main before a repair.
- Ponds, tanks and water features. Draining for cleaning, liner replacement or relocation.
- Construction and concrete. Clearing standing water off a slab or out of an excavation before work continues.
Getting a Good Result From a Rented Pump
- Prime the centrifugal pump before starting it. Fill the pump housing with water per the instructions. Running a centrifugal pump dry damages the seal — this is the single most common way rental pumps get hurt.
- Mind suction lift. A surface pump can only pull water up so far. Set it as close to the water level as you safely can; if the lift is too great it will not prime at all.
- Use a strainer on the suction inlet and keep it off the bottom. Leaves, gravel, silt and debris are what clog and damage pumps.
- Discharge somewhere sensible. Send the water far enough away, and downhill, so it does not run back. Do not discharge onto a neighbor's property or into a storm drain in violation of local rules — and never pump chemically treated pool water somewhere it should not go.
- Electrical safety for submersibles. Use a GFCI-protected circuit and a properly rated outdoor extension cord. Never handle a running submersible pump or its cord while standing in the water.
- Gas pumps run outdoors only. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide. Never operate a gasoline pump in a garage, crawl space, basement or any enclosed area — that is precisely when the electric submersible is the correct rental.
- Keep an eye on it. Running any pump dry after the water is gone will damage it. Check on it as the level drops.

Water Pump Rental — Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to rent a water pump in Arlington, TX?
Moore Rental Service rents a 2-inch gasoline centrifugal water pump for $65 per day or $240 per week, a 2-inch electric submersible for $55 per day or $220 per week, and a small submersible for $20 per day. A 2-inch by 50-foot discharge hose adds $8 per day. Call (817) 277-1141 to confirm.
Should I rent a submersible or a centrifugal pump?
Use the electric submersible for flooded basements, crawl spaces, sump pits and pool drain-downs — it goes into the water, needs no priming, and produces no exhaust, so it is safe indoors. Use the gasoline centrifugal pump where there is no power available, on open job sites, and after storms when the electricity is out.
Can I run a gas-powered water pump inside my garage or crawl space?
No. Gasoline engines produce carbon monoxide and must be operated outdoors in open air only. For any enclosed space — a garage, basement, crawl space or pit — use the electric submersible pump instead. That is exactly the situation it is built for.
Do I need to rent a hose with the pump?
Almost certainly. A 2-inch by 50-foot discharge hose rents for $8 per day and is the piece most people forget. You want enough length to move the water well away from the area and downhill, so it does not simply run back to where you pumped it from.
What does it mean to prime a pump?
Priming means filling the pump housing with water before starting it, so the impeller has something to move. A centrifugal pump sitting above the water level cannot draw on its own until it is primed. Running a centrifugal pump dry damages the seal — it is the most common way rental pumps get hurt.
How fast can a 2-inch pump drain a swimming pool?
That depends on pool volume, hose run and the lift involved, so the honest answer is to call (817) 277-1141 with your pool size and let the counter staff estimate it. A 2-inch pump moves water far faster than a garden hose siphon, and most residential pools drain within a single rental day.
Can I rent a pump the same day if my house is flooding?
Yes, subject to availability — that is a large share of what these pumps do. The Arlington store at 1010 W. Division St. is open Monday through Friday 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM and Saturday 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Call (817) 277-1141 first so staff can hold a pump and hose for you before you drive over.
Will the pump handle muddy or debris-laden water?
The 2-inch gasoline centrifugal pump handles water with suspended solids better than a clean-water pump, but no rental pump is meant to move rock, gravel or heavy sludge. Always use a strainer on the suction inlet and keep it off the bottom. Describe the water when you call and the staff will point you to the right unit.
