Review on πŸ’ͺ Efficient Submersible Pump: WAYNE WWB WaterBUG 1/6 HP 1350 GPH with Multi-Flo Technology and Removal Tool - Yellow by James Stjames

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I'm glad I had it at my fingertips!

I bought this unit a while ago because my basement sometimes floods during heavy rains. So after the first heavy rain I decided to buy a water bug. Even sadder, I bought it, there was never enough water to make it work. I'm grateful I didn't have to. But unfortunately it rained enough yesterday and it flooded all 3 rooms a second time. But fortunately I was able to test and use it. I left it on for a few hours yesterday, turned it off while I slept and went to work. Today he worked about 3 hours again and then used a workshop vacuum cleaner to give him a break. I didn't know how long it could run, probably while there was water, but I was still worried about the motor. One reviewer said they let it run for 21 consecutive days. But I restarted it after letting it sit while using a shop vacuum, it had a little trouble starting again. I don't know if the water was too shallow, but eventually it sank back into the suction water. Everything is going well so far. I'm glad I had it because I'm sure it saved at least a few hours of work. It is necessary to determine the actual operating time for sucking water from the entire basement.

Pros
  • Assembled in USA from imported and local parts
