ʻO ka pauma paipu maʻamau he mau ʻāpana: he kaʻa, he mea hoʻemi, he pamu centrifugal, a me ka paipu. Hiki ke hana ʻia kēia mau ʻāpana i nā mea like ʻole e kūpono i nā media like ʻole a me nā kaiapuni hana.
ʻO ke kaʻa, ka ikaika hoʻokele o ka paipu paipu, hana maʻamau ʻia mai nā metala e like me ke kila a me ke keleawe. Hana ʻia ka mea hoʻemi mai nā mea ikaika kiʻekiʻe-e like me ke kila kila e kū ai i nā haʻawe axial nui. Hana ʻia nā pauma Centrifugal mai ke kila kuhili ʻole, nā mea ʻenekinia ʻenekinia, a me nā mea hiki ke kū i ka ʻino. Hiki ke hana ʻia ka paipu mai nā ʻano mea like ʻole, me ka PVC, ka hao, a me ke kila.
