3/4 HP, 7000 GPH Submersible Sump Pump
3/4 HP, 7000 GPH Submersible Sump Pump
This 3/4 HP automatic submersible sump has everything you need. Superior performance at over 5000 GPH at 10 ft. of lift, energy efficiency at 7.5 amps, a built-in check valve, an adapter for connection to 1-1/4 in. or 1-1/2 in. discharge pipe and a lifetime warranty! This sump is ideal in an active sump and replaces any submersible or pedestal pump. Piggy-back style float allows for manual operation as a utility pump. Fits into a 12.6 in. or larger sump.

The real truth about a Sump Pump warranty!,

I've owned this Flotec model for 2.75 years. I bought this last Flotec model due to its better warranty and capability. (I used to work for their competitor years ago. I feel Flotec is a good brand.)
I paid $50 more for the better warranty and pump. I thought it would last at least 5 years. Let's discuss the life time warranty. You have to send the old unit back for Flotec first. What about your flooding basement in the mean time?
Thankfully, I have a battery back-up unit. This unit wasn't made for main full time pumping duties. It got me through the night and until I could buy the replacement.
Bottom line. Don't pay for the extra $ for this pump and its life time warranty. Who can wait for Flotec to send a replacement? Buy a lower cost unit from your local Home Depot and get a back-up pump or the battery back-up unit.
The warranty is selling feature, but not much use. My pumps go out when I'm on vacation or in the wee hours on the weekend. The warranty only works when you don't need the pump. Be Well.
No, I do not recommend this product.
