Review on πŸ”΄ King Innovation 48024 Siphon Pump - 24", Red by Chuck Derrick

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Saved my basement, saved my sleep. Highly recommended!

I'm from Rochester, NY where we had a freak hurricane that cut power to most residents for more than 3 days. My house is unfortunately at the end of our trip, which comes with the added bonus that our drain pump runs for about 10-20 seconds every hour on rainy days. an old empty paint can and a 5 gallon bucket. No wonder every major hardware store in and around Rochester has sold out every piece of equipment that could alleviate my distress, including this particular siphon pump. Revan enters. where I found the same siphon pump for $10 less than regular stores. I ordered this and this with 1 day delivery. This pump has saved me from insanity and sleepless nights. I was able to completely drain my well in about 50 full pumps which gave me 2.5 hours of sleep before the well refilled because it was able to completely drain the well where my bucket method wasn't finishing. Bottom. Again, depending on how hard you pump, some water will drip off the top of the pump, but compared to a flooded basement, that was a perfectly acceptable compromise. I will add that I have never bought or used such items, so I don't know if there is anything better. Definitely thanks to King Innovation and Revain!
