Sump Pump, PROSTORMER 1HP 3700GPH Water Pump with Automatic Float Switch

This sump pump is strong works very good

I bought one of these years ago for winter flooding and it worked perfectly until I messed it up. So I replaced it with the exact same item. If some works good stick with it and don't let it eat rocks like I did the first one

Just a heads up folks, this will air lock so drill the weep hole. I was able to air lock my pump and didnt have a weep hole. I love how quiet the pump is. I have had it in a since March 2024. so only a few months of rain but it works well. i zip tied the float to the handle so it would be auto-magical in a 5gal bucket. I also ziptied the float to the side of a the bucket through a hole and that worked as well. In case any is trying to be cheap or this "the way it was" in your location. I would say grab a wayne if you want reliable and better built but this is my backup. Just thought i would pass on my weep hole and zip solution(s) to those that are interested. *Update 11/2024 pump starting to fail. Didn’t last very long. Pay for a reliable one

For the price, these are good pumps. They won't last in continuous duty for weeks at a time, this is my 2nd one because the first one started making loud noises so I assume bearings are going out, but the float switch is reliable, and they can pump a lot of water. A note to say you need to add a check valve to prevent back flow after it shuts off and you need to tilt them on their side to get the pump chamber filled with water before they pump as the inlet on the bottom is like putting a cup upside down in the water, the air can't escape. This doesn't seem to be a problem if it runs out of water while pumping and when water rises again it seems to pump fine, just after the dry pump is placed in the water. Maybe a small bleed hole drilled in the side might help. I have mine pushing water from a sump uphill 6' through 50' of 1 1/2" corrugated hose and it works well. I also use 2" vinyl swimming pool hose and pump water 150'

WORKS GREAT!

Terrible value for money. It had great power...the first 5 minutes! Suction was great...for 5 minutes. Noise was low decibel. The pump was easy yo handle, had to use my own fittings though, as this pump lacked what was required to hook to a regular garden hose. This thing pumped GREAT for 5 minutes...after that it quot completely. So now since it was used for 5 minutes I'll probably be charged for a partial or full payment since I did a refund on it. Terrible product, complete garbage. I think it's a scam, because once you use it they can justify charging you because it's used, even if for 5 minutes. Trash product, will never buy from this seller again. Found an amazing pump at home depot for 20$, it requires a drill, but at least it doesn't malfunction after 5 minutes if use!

I just received my unit today 14 July 2023. It now comes with a 3rd adapter (the listing only shows 2) and this 3rd adapter has a 3/4" hose thread. So anyone who buys a unit now will be able to use a garden hose. I personally will use a 1 1/2" pool flexible hose but for those who need it the option is there. I am giving it a tentative 5* rating for this upgrade even though I haven't unboxed it yet. I will modify later if I run into any issues. I wanted to get the news out quickly. Please see photos for details. Update 7/23/23: This item was missing the nylon cord that is supposed to be in the box to lift it out f the water - in my case a 12' pool. I know I can go and buy some cord but lowering the rating due to a quality control issue that is annoying. Update 11/26/23: I upgraded the rating after using it. Still annoyed that I had to spend an extra $10 buying the cord to lower it in the pool, but it worked great. I bought it to empty an 18000 gallon pool with a 10' deep end and it emptied it in 9 hours for an average of about 2000gph. That may seem low compared to its rating but it had to pump the water up about 10' and I used 150' of flexible hose that went around bends and corners. So given the pressure drop and the length I thought this was pretty good. It is on sale today for about $12 less than I paid. I think this is great value if it looks suitable for your use case.

Muy buena bomba funciona a la perfección
