Portable Water Management for Restoration Job Sites

Water filtration systems from Grimeworks provide portable pumping, filtration, and high-volume extraction for restoration, remediation, and decontamination job sites — managing water use, runoff, and flood recovery in situations where a permanent plumbing setup isn't available or practical. Compact and easy to transport, these systems support the water management side of restoration work alongside your air filtration, air movers, and decontamination equipment.

Our lineup includes Aerospace America's portable filtration pump platform, along with high-volume flood pumpers from U.S. Products and EDIC built for large-scale water extraction.

Filtration Pumps vs. Flood Pumpers: Know the Difference

This category covers two related but distinct types of equipment:

Filtration Pumps — Compact, portable units that filter and manage water supply, typically paired with decontamination showers or used for general job site water needs.

Flood Pumpers — High-volume extraction systems built for continuous removal of standing water during active flood restoration, rated in GPM (gallons per minute) rather than just tank capacity.

If you're supplying or filtering water for a decon shower or general job site use, a filtration pump is the right fit. If you're actively extracting standing water from a flooded space, a flood pumper is built specifically for that higher-volume job.

Filtration Pumps

Aerospace America Compact Water Filtration Pump #9116 — A lightweight, portable pumping and filtration system designed for restoration, remediation, decontamination, and general job site water management, with a compact footprint that's easy to transport into tight or hard-to-reach spaces.

Aerospace America 2 Stage Pump #9115 — A portable water filtration and pumping system built specifically for use with the Aerospace America Portable Shower #9105, efficiently filtering and managing water for decontamination and restoration applications.

Flood Pumpers

U.S. Products Kraken 6.6 Restoration Flood Pumper (18 Gallon, with Vacuum & Dump Hose Set) — A high-performance water extraction system built around dual 6.6 two-stage vacuum motors, delivering powerful airflow and high-volume extraction for professional flood restoration.

EDIC FloodBuster 50 GPM Flood Pumper (FB50) — A high-volume flood extraction machine with a compact dolly-style design, large rear wheels, locking front casters, and an adjustable stair-climbing handle for fast water removal in restoration jobs.

Choosing the Right Water Management Equipment

  • Standalone Use vs. Shower Pairing — If you're running a decontamination shower setup, the Aerospace America 2 Stage Pump #9115 is purpose-built to pair with the Portable Shower #9105. For general job site water management outside of a shower setup, the Compact Water Filtration Pump #9116 offers broader flexibility.
  • Filtration vs. Extraction Volume — Filtration pumps are sized for supply and management, not high-volume removal; if you're facing active flooding, a GPM-rated flood pumper like the Kraken 6.6 or FloodBuster will outperform a filtration pump not built for that volume.
  • Portability — All four units are built for job site transport rather than fixed installation; confirm the footprint and weight fit your typical access conditions, especially for jobs involving stairs or confined spaces — the FloodBuster's stair-climbing handle and locking casters address this directly.
  • Filtration Stages — Multi-stage filtration reduces particulates and other unwanted substances more thoroughly than a single-stage pump, which matters more on jobs with heavier contamination.

Getting the Most from Your Water Management Equipment

  • Pair with the Right Equipment — If you're using a decon shower, confirm your pump is compatible with that specific shower model before deployment.
  • Match Equipment to the Job Type — Use filtration pumps for water supply and management tasks, and reach for a flood pumper when you're facing actual standing water removal.
  • Inspect Before Each Job — Portable pumps and flood pumpers see repeated transport and setup; a quick check of hoses, fittings, and filtration components before each job prevents mid-job surprises.
  • Match Capacity to Job Duration — Longer jobs or larger crews cycling through a decon station or flood site put more demand on equipment capacity over the course of a shift.
