Good quality and quiet when you don't touch anything

Expensive part but it fits perfectly in a mini split. It replaced a similar unit that had lasted 3 years. I wrapped mine in a towel to keep it from vibrating against the plastic casing of the mini-split itself. I can't even hear it running now.

Pros
  • 3A NO/NC dry contacts rated for 5A inductive at 230VAC
Cons
  • disappears

Loudest motor ever

It's such a burden I hate it after all this money this thing wakes me up every night because the water is still filling the reservoir after the aircon stops and I automatically hit the sale , the air conditioning is more does not work and at night it sounds like the union is about to collapse. 2 starts only because the water goes

Pros
  • Self-priming
Cons
  • Older model

Too noisy for a mini-split bedroom

I bought this pump as one of the few condensate pumps that doesn't require in-wall installation. It was also the best brand I could find. Functionally it's great. Installation was easy and it works exactly as expected. However, it's too loud. I've done everything I can think of to muffle the noise and it's still unbearable. It would be fine for a place where people aren't sleeping or where there is background noise, but it's not good for a bedroom.

Pros
  • Built-in hanging loop and separate reservoir makes vertical mounting easier
Cons
  • Drill kit

Things can move and hoses can kink easily

installed two of these pumps in a multi-zone mini-split system. The general consensus about the product is that it installs so essentially everything is glued, things can move, and the hoses kink easily. That doesn't seem like a solution that works for very long. I don't see this system running more than two years. In addition, when installed in a mini-split atomizer, the pump makes a rather loud noise. Consider ceiling mounting. There has to be a better way to solve this condensate pumping…

Pros
  • This is an aftermarket community part
Cons
  • Safety
