John Dirks Jr Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I've not seen a pump like this before. Obviously there is no holding tank. It had a 3/4" copper discharge line that went up the wall to a PVC drain pipe. There was a manual switch and I saw no means of automatic activation. I guess you just flip the switch to empty the basin after the washing machine shuts off. It sucked the water out pretty fast. Have any of you seen this type before? Comments?

Neal Lewis Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 John, no internal pressure switch? Did you fill the tub up pretty high to see if it automatically activated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dirks Jr Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 John, no internal pressure switch? Did you fill the tub up pretty high to see if it automatically activated? I filled to about 3 or 4 inches. No automatic activation at that level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Amaral Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Yes... I've seen exactly that... I simply recommend that upgrade to a modern system for the obvious reasons.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
