Propeller & Mixed Flow Pumps

When large volumes of water need to be moved quickly and efficiently, propeller pumps and mixed flow pumps offer an ideal solution. At American Pump & Drilling, we design, sell, and service these high-capacity systems for agricultural, municipal, and industrial use across Eastern Idaho, Western Wyoming, and Southern Montana.

Propeller pumps are designed for low head, high-flow applications—making them well-suited for flood irrigation, drainage systems, surface water transfers, and water circulation. Mixed flow pumps, on the other hand, offer a balance of higher flow rates and moderate head, providing more versatility in systems requiring both pressure and volume.

Our team has decades of experience in selecting and installing these pump types for large-scale surface water movement. We understand how to match the pump style and size to the specific conditions of your project—accounting for flow requirements, elevation, suction conditions, and power availability.

We perform most services in-house, with minimal outsourcing—if any. Our full-service machine shop supports fabrication and repair of components, and our Motor Shop can rewind or repair electric motors for propeller and mixed flow pump systems. Whether you’re planning a new installation or servicing an aging system, we’re equipped to handle the job.
