Comments about Flotec 1/4HP Intellipump Thermoplastic Utility Pump - FPOS1775A:
Clears water from a sump beneath the house. Few pumps made will draw water down so low to flush surface. Connection was easy. Longevity could be better.

Comments about Flotec 1/4HP Intellipump Thermoplastic Utility Pump - FPOS1775A:
I used this in place of a sump pump because my basement is basically a slab of rock and I do not have tools to drill a pit. I put this in a bucket that I cut the bottom off in a low spot of the basement, dumped gravel around it, and plugged it in. Fall and spring water runs through the basement, and in winter my furnace humidifier dumps water onto the floor, so I use this to pump it out (water will drain by itself, but meanwhile it's pretty damp down there). This sucked a lot of volts every time it ran to detect water, so I put it on a timer. That way it only ran for 1/2 hour twice a day. Worked well for 5 years. Recently the motor died. Maybe because of voltage interruption with the timer, or maybe that's the life of the pump. As I said, it worked well while it worked, but $[...] seems a lot to spend every few years.
