Could this be used to pump water? I'd like to use it as a foot pump for a camping shower.

No. It can not be used with water. The structure that stops the air of coming out (reflux) is very thin and would not stand against the water pressure and a higher density. You could use it only to pump air...

Hey,i think it would work great for that purpose i would try though to make sure the pump is below or lower then the tank,good luck Pat

It would. But it is intended to screw into your campers fresh water connection and an air hose to blow compressed air through your water lines.

I don't know for sure has I have never tried it for this purpose. I will say that this would probably NOT be the best apparatus to use for this, as this device did cause a certain amount of water to spill out while it was being pumped. This is no big deal for water ... probably would be for gasoline.

I, personally would not attempt to do so because, while this has a decent amount of water pressure, it still doesn't produce enough to use a massaging shower head. Also, since this is designed to be used by dropping the pump end into the water supply, if you are wanting to cease the water from being used up, simply drop the shower head in with the pump.

Yes I think that will work fine. You can use it just to generate hot water. Hope this helps!

It could, but this is such a tiny pump that it would only be good for a tabletop fountain. You would need to make sure that the plug would not be exposed to the elements.

I would not recommend using as a home sump pump. It isn't fast enough for the task, and has lift limitations. I use mine to remove water from a 33 foot round pool cover, does the job but gets clogged easily making cleaning of it often.

i have this unit and yes you would . or you could add some wire to the wire coming off the pump the length of the wire is up to you. but you will more than likely will set this up in camp recirculating your water so no creek needed . i run mine into 5gal bucket then into a 25gal bin with the pump in it

Technically you could use it like a water gun..more of a stream not a spray

I assume you could use it for that it is made for hydroponic applications but with the right fittings from lowes it would work. There might be cheaper alternatives though for drinking water it is something you should probably look into first

Wait, these were two different answers, I have the same question, can I use it for camping? did you find out?

The pump isn't that fast as you would just using a wetting can. And as long as the distance is below the maximum head there should be no problem.

No! this model of Coleman airbed can only be used with electricty to inflate - a valve shape that you see in the picture is for deflating only, i.e. you can't pump to inflate this type of airbed. The only solution that I would suggest is a Portable Generator for camping then you would able to use this airbed.

I don't see why not, it's an outdoor Tea Kettle that would be used for camping

I don't think that it would be useful for that purpose at all. It takes a lot of pumping to blow up a small animal balloon. A foot pump might work really well for a pool, though:Texsport Deluxe High-Volume Bellows Air Pump

This probably wouldn't work for that. It is a small pump made for mountain bike shocks. It can be used for bike tires but takes a while due to the small size of the pump.
