- Engine type: Diesel pumps cost more than petrol pumps.
- Brand: Each maker prices its models differently.
- Pump size: Larger inlet sizes in inches move more water, so they cost more.
- Head and suction height: Higher head means stronger lift, hence a higher price.

How Engine Driven Irrigation Pumps from Aqua Hub Kenya Work
An engine driven irrigation pump turns fuel into water pressure in a simple sequence. Each stage hands energy to the next, so water reaches your crops steadily.
- The engine turns the pump shaft.
- The impeller spins and creates suction.
- Water rises through the suction hose into the pump.
- The pump pressurizes the water and pushes it into the delivery pipe.
- Sprinklers or drip lines release the water over the field.
This process runs without grid electricity. Since the engine supplies all the power, the pump works in remote fields and on new plots. Also, you can move the pump from one water source to another as your farm grows.
Petrol Engine Driven Irrigation Pumps from Aqua Hub Kenya
Petrol pumps start at KES 20,000, so they are the most affordable way into engine driven irrigation. Since they are light and easy to carry, one pump serves several plots. The petrol range splits into two pressure types:
- High pressure: Astramilano and AICO, priced at KES 35,000 and KES 38,000.
- Low pressure: HISAKI, Milano, Daishin and Honda, priced from KES 20,000 to KES 42,000.
Because high pressure pumps push water through longer pipes and sprinklers, they suit larger layouts. Low pressure pumps move large volumes of water over short distances, such as tank filling and flood irrigation.
Diesel Engine Driven Irrigation Pumps from Aqua Hub Kenya
Diesel pumps suit farms that run engine driven irrigation for long hours, because they offer higher head and stronger engines than petrol models. Hence, they handle long pipe runs and larger acreage with ease.
- Highest head: The Aico 3 inch pump lifts to 100 m.
- Strongest engines: The Power Italia and Caltons 3 inch pumps run on 14 Hp.
- Smallest size: The Aico 1.5 inch pump runs on 7 Hp.
- Mid-range: The Pacwell 2 inch and 3 inch pumps run on 10 Hp.
Every diesel model in our range has a suction height of 6 m to 7 m. Therefore, you should place the pump close to the water source.
Benefits of Engine Driven Irrigation on Kenyan Farms
Engine driven irrigation gives farmers control over when and how much they water. Because the pump needs no electric connection, you irrigate anywhere your pipes reach. Also, the pump delivers steady pressure for sprinklers and drip lines.
- Irrigation without grid power
- Portable pumps that serve several plots
- Higher yields through timely watering
- Choice of petrol or diesel to fit your budget
- Strong lift for sloping or elevated fields
- Easy pairing with hoses, pipes and sprinklers
On top of that, a pump pays for itself when dry spells threaten your harvest.
