This pool cover pump is recommended for several reasons.
First of all, the pump comes with a 3/4" garden hose connection and a 25' power cord. The pump is also automatic and has an integrated float switch that activates in 2" of water.
The built-in handle makes it very easy to move around and helps with easy placement on the pool cover.
If these features weren't enough, the 3-year warranty offers a piece of mind you can't ignore.

Do not buy this pump. It will clog, it will fail, it will not clear the water off your cover. If you enjoy waking up to a pool cover full of water or working in the rain to try to get this P.O.S. working, this is the pump for you. If not, move on and buy something half the price that will work 10x better.

Works great the first year. You want to use a 3/4” hose for maximum flow rate. Higher flow rate than other pumps, but I have been buying one every year lately.

A Good Pool Cover Pump
By Stephen K.
Berlin, Maryland
Purchased 04/26/2020 |
Review Posted 06/09/2020
It a little pricey for the size pump however the sweetness of a low price is long forgotten after the bitterness of poor quality lingers on. With that said, this is my 2nd one of these pumps. The first one is 3 years old and still functions fine. I use it almost 8 months a year on my pool cover and I wanted a back up if it failed. I installed a 12" rise with 2 - 45 elbows and about 8' of 1" schedule 80 plastic pipe to use as a handle to place it out in the center of the pool cover. Zip tie the long power cord to the pipe for a clean finished look. Connected to the 1" pipe is a 50' 3/4" garden hose to remove the water from the area. The pump has plenty of pressure to easily move the water IF you keep it clean of leaves and other debris. Buy it.

This purchase was for a replacement of a pump my dog chewed the power cord in half. Works great. Only issue was it was damaged in shipping ( handle was broken ). Still worked though.

Review Posted 05/20/2017
Works vey intermittently. Many time I have had to go out in the rain and mess with it to get it working. I have had 3 and returned all 3 after they died. I just switched to the Wayne pump. Hopefully it's better.
