1.2HP Submersible Sump Pump 5000GPH With Float Switch - Auto/Manual For Pool & Basement

About This Product

Okay folks, if you've ever dealt with flooded basements, pool draining nightmares, or any kind of water transfer job, listen up! This 1.2HP submersible sump pump is an absolute workhorse that moves serious water - we're talking 5000 gallons per hour kind of power.

And it's got this handy float switch that lets it work automatically or manually, whatever your situation calls for.

So how does this thing work? The efficient 1.2HP motor is designed to save energy while still delivering massive pumping power. It can remove water down to just 2 inches from the surface, which means you're getting almost every last drop out of whatever you're draining. The automatic mode uses the float switch to turn on when water rises and off when the job's done - perfect for sump pits or situations where water accumulation is unpredictable.

Manual mode gives you direct control when you need it. Just plug it in and it goes to work. Before using, you'll want to fully submerge the pump at an angle for 20-30 seconds to get any air out of the system - this ensures optimal performance right from the start.

The filter screen is a game-changer - it lets you pump both clean AND dirty water. It handles solids up to 1/5 inch, so leaves, debris, and small particles won't jam it up.

Perfect for pools, ponds, rain barrels, flooded basements, construction sites - you name it. The corrosion-resistant casing and thermoplastic construction mean this pump can handle tough conditions without falling apart.

Safety features include thermal overload protection that automatically cuts power if the motor overheats (then restarts when it cools down). You get multiple adapter options too - NPT 1-1/2 inch discharge hose, GHT 3/4 inch garden hose, and adapters for Ф 1-1/4 inch, Ф 1 inch, or NPT 1 inch hoses.

For maximum flow, we recommend using the 1-1/2 inch discharge hose. This pump is seriously ready for whatever water challenges you throw at it!
