 disintigrated pump August 10, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
put this pump on new central a/c system just over a year ago. Just out of warranty the pump failed. Took the cover off to find the pump housing plastic had crumbled to bits in the bottom of the tank. The pump had been running for a long time and was scorching hot. Called the company and they blamed it on manufacturing chemicals on the A/C unit, and would make no adjustment. Are you kidding? Piece of crap, appears a clear manufacturing deficiency. Many plastics are impervious to chemicals. Buyer beware--be ready to buy one per year! BETTER SOLUTION, COST FREE AND NO FURTHER PROBLEMS, IS TO RUN A GRAVITY DRAIN.
 Great Price for Value June 5, 2008
This pump does not have an over full limiting switch. My old pump did have. I often needed to over ride that switch because it would shut down the Heat/Cool operation and demand my attention to operate normally.
This pump will run as long as there is water enough to set the float to the on position. Now I just need to listen/watch that the pump dosen't get plugged, meaning I will need to hear it shut off in a normal cycle and see that it does not overflow. That can't be any more difficult than what I have been doing. Thanks for a good value.
 Problem Pump December 10, 2007

I don't know if I did something wrong, but I am helpless with this pump. All the connections seem to be right, but the pump leaks, meaning, it doesn't turn itself on as fast as it should. I have been slow to react, but am getting tired with puddles in the basement. It seems that the only right way would have been to return it on time and get another one. I have had this for a month and a half.
No safety switch December 3, 2007

This model does NOT come with a safety switch (model#554405 apparently does). It does not mention this anywhere in the product description, nor does it mention this in the installation instructions. It took me a frustratingly long time to figure out that the switch was actually not there. Without the safety switch, this in NOT a good pump for a furnace. The pump I was replacing had the safety switch hooked up to the furnace to turn it off if the pump failed...avoiding a big pool of water on the floor. I never would have ordered this model had I known there was no safety switch.

I hooked this pump to the dehumidifier in the basement and stuck the end of a 20 foot hose outside the basement window. It's great! Now I don't have to go down and empty the bucket twice a day!
