Climate changes. Increased precipitation and water level.

Recent major and global climate changes are leading to increasing temperatures, precipitation, higher water levels in the oceans and increased high tide levels in connection with storms and floods. Looking back on last year’s development, the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) reported record-high temperatures and precipitation, and these changes are leaving their mark on the Danish landscape.

The country is surrounded by water, and the majority of our cities are located on the coastline – Danish summer houses are traditionally situated in the lower coastal regions by the sea. Consequently, a lot of Danes, house owners as well as farmers, are potentially exposed to the devastating power of any future floods. The farming industry, in particular, is already experiencing the negative effects of the climate changes. Their land may be flooded, crops ruined and with large consequences for their businesses.

We see customers challenged by large volumes of rainwater and increased water levels – especially in the lower regions such as Lolland-Falster, Western Jutland and large parts of Zealand. We are happy to see that many of those at risk are taking precautions and booking inspection and service of their existing pumping units or investing in brand new units.

Drainage pump specialists – for generations.

For more than 130 years, Lykkegaard A/S has worked with drainage, and over 3,500 of our pumps are daily running to keep water away from inhabited and cultivated land in Denmark. Our drainage pump solutions are installed in various places, including pump and dike associations, house owners’ associations, summer cottages, farms and estates, municipalities and The Danish Nature Agency – running to protect large parts of Denmark against flooding and to restore landscapes.

All our pump solutions are customized and manufactured for each individual project, and all pumps are tested and certified before installation on site. Because we are always thinking ahead, we guarantee quality, high performance and capacity combined with a well-documented low energy consumption – and most importantly, that our customers will experience a reliable pump solution that will last for many years. All in all, a sustainable pump option – economically as well as environmentally.

We specialize in propeller pumps and offer our services as a consultant and a supplier. Our experienced and professional staff carry out service, maintenance and optimisation of existing pumping units across Denmark every day – from our in-house service workshop or on site. When it comes to parts replacement or production of new and customized pump solutions, our skilled technicians are at your disposal to help you with dimensions and to guide you. All our propeller pumps are manufactured at our Funen factory which is also the base of our service offers – tow trucks are available, too.

We are ready to guide you with the right project solution and to answer your questions.
