Title: shipped quick, works very quickly. Highly suggested if you need a condensation pump
Review: I recently installed a "plumbed-in" icemaker. This Icemaker requires a condensate pump to help remove the melted ice water. I selected a Little Giant pump--and it runs quickly (approx. 5 seconds--to lift all the water collected), makes very little noise and easily lifts the water to a utility sink drain (about 4ft). I am VERY impressed with the quality and the price was reasonable for the expected long life these units normally provide.If you are looking for a condensate pump--this is the best choice you can make. I highly recommend this pump. Small, works well--no maintenance ever needed. Plug it in and forget it.

Title: Pump For Furnace and AC
Review: This pump arrangement offers a turnkey solution to a problem I have been avoiding for years. Overall, it is a well thought out system which allows for easy installation, and the pump operates quietly and efficiently. For those who are contemplating the addition of a condensate pump system, I can offer these observations; I was shocked at how much moisture a relatively new furnace puts out. From looking at the drip line, I thought for years it was only a cupful a day. I was wrong. When you combine the amount given off by the furnace with the huge quantity produced in hot weather with high humidity by the air conditioner, you have a big moisture issue which can lead to mold and mildew, as well as attract insects and tree roots.Features: This pump is a self contained system which is simple to mount and operate. The internal float allows for automatic operation, and there is also an additional overflow switch which can be hooked to an alarm for overflow conditions. The top half rests on the mounted reservoir without the need for screws or latches. To mount, you simply position the bottom reservoir and drill 2 holes. The box must be relatively level for good float operation.As far as dislikes, one minor complaint would be capacity; had I been more aware of the amount of water the furnace put off, I might have searched for something a little larger, but the nice thing is that the compact size makes for convenient mounting. My biggest complaint is the quality of the reservoir, which is made from a type of plastic that I feel may be a bit brittle for this application. The mounting ears seem like the weak point, as they are built in to the brown reservoir. All of this might be academic except for the fact that the unit will require cleaning from time to time. This means popping the top portion away from the bottom, and likely flexing those little mounting ears each time.Overall, this is a neat, self-contained system that solves a problem at low cost and effort.

Title: Works like it should.
Review: Replaced the one that gave excellent service for over 20 years, it finally gave up and quit. Replaced it with this one, the same model that quit, and it works perfect. The Little Giant Automatic Condensation Removal Pumps are the best. Thank You for an excellent product.

Title: Silent and reliable
Review: Our french drain in the basement floor in our 25+ year old house had trouble keeping up on humid days, flooding our basement several times this year. I order the 80 GPH pump and 50ft of hose and routed it to the laundry room drain. The only criticism I have is that the 20ft of hose with the pump is way inadequate. The pump is very quiet. Installation took minutes.

Title: Air conditioning sump pump
Review: Great quality, easy to install and hook up. All you have to do is literally plug it in and rum ur discharge tube to either drain or outside. I use mine on indoor ac unit in basement. I do not have a drain in floor and pump it 20 feet outside. This machine has no problem doing so and has never failed me yet. Top pops off for essy cleaning, has great power, is generally quiet and holds a good amount of liquid before pumping which is great cause its not constantly turning on and off. Everything works off internal float. Install it and let it do its job. Good product

Review: My furnace condensate pump failed and I needed a replacement asap. I quickly looked at the inventory online of local shops, and decided to save the headache and have one delivered. Within 24hrs I had it installed. Only took 15 minutes to install. Simple 2 wires to connect, mount it, cut the tubing, plug it in and fill the reservoir to test. (It took four 8 ounce glasses to fill. )I discovered that I needed a 3/8 coupling that I had to purchase separately for under $5. The instructions mention not using metal hose clamps, they recommend zip ties, ( also not included. )Love that I didn't have to run across town to grab a pump. My last pump lasted 30 years. I don't expect anything made today to compare, but I'm satisfied with the product.The pump is audible when it's running, but I'd rather hear it and know it's working.
