will this pump work for pumping water out of a lake where the water will be a little muddy?

It will work but you probably wanna go with bigger than 2 inches hose.itsucks plain water very slow so its not going to work very good with muddy water

Yes if it's not too muddy or a lot of debris if that's the case you need a trash pump

It should. But I guess it depends on the size of your pump. My above ground pool is 15x30 ad it works great with a 1/4 hp motor

have used out doors, mesh will clog with floating debri. ie leaves and grass clipings. if for just dark sediment water it will work when flow is established. keep pump on flat surface so as no to draw up mud. place on a man made surface ie a board or cement block.

I believe you will not be satisfied with this pump in that application. It move a fairly high volume of water a low pressure on an almost level plane, such as from the bilge of a small boat. Pumping 7 feet elevation will really tax its capacity.

Yes it should. There is a lint strainer that you can remove and clean. The lint cover is on the top of the pump and is easily accessible

Hi Patricia, i wouldn't advise it as its a submersible pump. For one inch of water you may want a pump that has a flat extension piece or something to suck up water. Hope this helps. The pump was okay...it was a little sometimish. We ended up getting the red lion pump but again this is for like septic tanks and the like

The pump is about 6 inches thick and so I would think it would require 7 or 8 inches of water,

I am not sure but I would think that it would NOT get the necessary amount of feed water to operate properly. I would not take the chance of it running out of water and ruining the pump.

As long as the tubing coming out of the pump ends below the water level in the tank or not more than a few inches higher. It won't pump up hill very well because it's so small

You can try it, but my guess is that it will jam up the pump pretty quick. I would suggest that you try it w/ the filter in there first to see how it goes.

The pump will work as long as the gridded intake is submerged in water approximately 1" to 2" deep. Yeah there is a little bit of water left, so I typically slide my skimmer pole under the tarp cover and lift it to create a larger pool of water for the pump to suck out. Usually there may be a few gallons left to wipe up with a large towel.

Yes, it will work. Check the discharge requirements for your system. Pumps with 2" in and 2" out are available.

It will work, however if you use you pool allot or it gets dirty easily I would go with a bigger pump.

This pump will work. However, it would be more efficient to go with a bigger filter.

I think so, use it for pumping water from a lake into my lawn irrigation system, works very well.

If the pump is designed to plug into a standard cigarette lighter plug and works off a standard 12 volt system, it should work great.

Hello- this pump should work fine as long as your pipe runs and elevation changes are minimal , please be sure it is completely submerged.
