Review on FLUENTPOWER 1/2HP Submersible Pump For Rain Barrels, Ponds, Pools, Hot Tubs, And Cellars - 1050 GPH With Float Switch And 26Ft Cable - Efficient Drainage Water Solution by Jay Kowal

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Worked great - ONE time

I used this to drain my 250 gallon hot tub. One time. The next time I tried to use it - 6 months later - it shorted. I can tell the motor works because it will turn on for about a 15-30 seconds then it flips the circuit breaker.Clearly there is a broken or loose wire. So it seems the durability/ quality is subpar if it doesn't last for a second use.My hot tub manufacturer recommends draining the tub twice a year. So now of course it's outside the return window because I only need a pump every 6 months. I shouldn't have to buy a new pump every 6 months.

Pros
  • The 1/2 HP motor ensures powerful performance, capable of pumping up to 1050 gallons per hour
Cons
  • May not work well with certain types of filters or accessories
