1. A method, comprising:
connecting modular pump manifolds to a main high-pressure manifold to provide a modular manifold system,
wherein each modular pump manifold is fluidly connected to a frac fluid source and a water source via a low-pressure header, and
wherein each modular pump manifold is connected to multiple pumps;
supplying a fracturing fluid to two or more of the modular pump manifolds via the low-pressure header;
increasing a pressure of the fracturing fluid using the multiple pumps connected to each modular pump manifold to supply a high pressure fracturing fluid to the main high-pressure manifold;
discontinuing supply of the fracturing fluid to a first modular pump manifold of the two or more modular pump manifolds while continuing to supply the fracturing fluid to a remainder of the two or more modular pump manifolds via the low-pressure header; and
fluidly isolating the first manifold from the main high-pressure manifold.
