Areas Served

RotaPump is based in Grass Valley and serves nearby communities in Northern California. Regular service areas include Willits, CA and Brooktrails, CA, plus surrounding Sierra Nevada foothill locations. Many customers are on properties with private wells that need regular monitoring, especially after dry summers or wet winter runoff.

Company History

The business began with a simple field need: a reliable, portable pump that could work in 2-inch monitoring wells without frequent tear-downs. From those early tests the Rotapump Model 100 was developed and refined. Over time the product and service approach grew to support small environmental firms, well owners, and technicians in the region.

Design choices—stainless steel, aluminum, and Teflon/Delrin components—reflect a focus on low wear and long life in abrasive or sediment-laden water. The pump’s portability and ability to run on a car battery made it a practical tool for foothill terrain and sites without easy power access.

Leadership

The founder and leadership team bring hands-on experience in groundwater sampling, pump maintenance, and field logistics. They are locally based and work directly with well owners and environmental consultants to tailor setups to site conditions.

Leadership stays engaged with the local community by advising on practical sampling challenges common in the Grass Valley area—like seasonal water table shifts and sediment from winter runoff.
