Questions & Answers

With a portable air conditioner, I have a drain plug that rises one and a half inches above the What if I don't raise the air conditioner high enough off the ground to get the pump to work?

My husband and I faced the exact same issue when we bought our portable air conditioner. By placing the A/C unit on small 2x4 blocks, I was able to fix the problem. In addition to being useful for vacuuming, the high ceiling is also helpful for vacuuming the carpet. If you vacuum the A/C a bit more, you can reach under it better. Also, I have placed the pump unit in a cake pan made of metal. Using this cake pan is a cheap way to protect your home if any water leaks.

Could you please let me know what the height of water (depth I guess) is that will turn the automatic pump on and off? The diameter looks to be between an inch and a half ?

I measured my unit as follows 1 inch at a time. Half an inch off. There are no vibrations, and the pump motor is very quiet A powerful force that moves

What should I do if I want the safety switch to work? In addition to a wet switch, I have already wired parts of the system. ?

A wire that exits the unit, when submerged, shuts the unit off - there are no cables to hook up to it.

Inlet openings are located on the bottom. What is the height of this opening?

My heart is so full of joy that I cannot contain It has happened a couple of times
5/5

This portable server room can be easily moved from one place to another The previous model of rated air conditioner did not fill up with condensed water from its internal tank because it evaporated much faster than it collected. In this year's busy gardening season, that tank fills up so fast I have to drain it every 15 minutes In the event of a temperature drop, the a/c turns itself off after 45 minutes of relative humidity in the air. This is more than It took me a long time to find a condensate pump with enough physical depth on the floor so that gravity can drain the portable air conditioner's internal tank from the low-profile pump A slung spigot that enters the pump's holding tank (raising the portable a/c off the floor for more high-profile pumps would introduce instability into the equation). I use a float switch to ensure that the pump automatically drains itself directly into my bathtub in the nearby bathroom. The process of draining every 15 minutes is no longer tedious and manual You have 45 minutes left. I wish you a happy, happy, joyous day. Thanks to Amazon, I have been able to shop online without wasting time scouring the city for it. Thanks to them, I have been able to let my fingers do the shopping and avoid wasting time when shopping for them.

I love how easy it is To drain the melt-off of my commercial ice machine, I purchase this device to use as a drain pump
5/5

I was previously required to elevate the ice bin with the maker on top in order to create the gravity required. was remodeling the kitchen, and I wanted to see the wall behind, so a customer told me I could rent a portable pump to force the drains to drain faster There's no power. I found this when I was doing a little research. I like how it works! A decade ago, I would have loved to know about this. I love how easy it is Make sure you have the tubing on hand before you buy.

I can't believe how well this works
5/5

To pump excess condensate from a portable air conditioner, I am using this. In rainy weather, an air conditioner using the heating mode creates up to 2 gallons of condensate overnight, a volume that is greater than what can be handled by its evap systems. Despite the fact that the hose connector on the air conditioner is mounted at its base, I was able to run a hose from the air conditioner to the pump with this low profile pump. The automatic start of the pump kicks in every 20 minutes or so, and it pumps the condensate into a bucket every 5 gal. The process of setting up the system was straightforward It just requires the connection of two hoses (not included with the pump) and has worked without a hitch.

Exactly what we were looking for! Replacing a floater where the stick is stuck was easy
5/5

Your HVAC company will probably charge you more than $200 for this system. Replacing can be done with little difficulty. Having cleaned the old unit and now it's working just fine, I will use it for backup. This pump in my master closet sounds like it is going off (it's in the attic). But it makes a tremendous amount of noise. As far as brand loyalty goes, I would stick to Little Giant.

This is actually the way I let my flood tables dispose of their waste water to a drain
5/5

This is actually the way I let my flood tables dispose of their waste water to a drain. When some coco clogs the opening where the water flows, it doesn't work very well. Nevertheless, it is not the pumps fault since it is not designed to do that. This happens very rarely, no matter how you look at it. Definitely recommend it for not only this purpose, but for its actual purpose as well.

Despite its small size, this pump is quite effective
5/5

I'm not in the high-income level I found exactly what I was looking for in your profile. The Little Giant pump I got was right after I purchased the 12000 BTU AC unit I bought from Whynter. There is such a drain opening for condensation water on that unit that it is too close to the ground (too close). The pump had to be raised onto some 2x2s to reach it at a height that allowed it to be used. Despite that, I was glad that such a system existed and was not only convenient but also easy to use It is possible for there to be a profile condensate pump. In the end, it saved me gallons of water, as it was able to remove the condensate water from my home. You can install and use it in a few minutes, it is fast, it is powerful and it is easy to This purchase has not left me with any regrets.
We recommend it!.

As the drain pump, I use this on my Scotsman
5/5

My second one of these is used in the place of a very expensive proper drain pump on my Scotsman icemaker-this is my second one. A couple of years ago, we had our first relationship. If there is a power failure, the pump will overflow with melting ice, which is the main drawback of using this pump for this application.

It is also known as "Little Giant
4/5

". In the attic of our house, we have a gas furnace that is draining its water condensate into a catch pan. We needed to pump it over to a PVC drain pipe to let it go properly out. The problem with my situation was that the furnace has no clearance underneath, so I had to opt for The unit I received met all my needs. It installed right out of the box and has been working My basement furnace currently uses another Little Giant pump which has worked without any issues for over ten years. For this reason, I decided to buy another one. Little Giant pumps are known for their outstanding performance, and that's no exaggeration. There was a good deal on the pump, so if you need anything, please reach out It's easy for a do-it-yourselfer to install one.
