How deep would standing water have to get to spill over into the inlet?

What Jim said. This is not a submersible sump pump and would not handle the volume of water that would need to be removed from a sump. Plus the motor is not waterproof. If it gets wet, it will burn out.

The purpose of this pump is not to sit in water and then pump it out, but rather to have water pumped into the reservoir, the black tank on the bottom, from which it is then pumped to the drain. This is not a sump pump, but rather a condensate pump. It pumps out the condensation from your air conditioner or your dehumidifier. I use mine to do that job for both appliances.

It would be equal to the depth of the black base. I have had mine for 2 years now. Works well.

Depends how big. Dont expect anything bigger than a flow of 8 inches. Submerged under 3 inches of water.

No, the water would overflow and all you would have left is a small amount. This has to be used for feed so the gravity takes it to the tray. Suggest getting a similar size but made for water where the water is regulated.

I'm not sure if it would be to high. But part if it DOES need to be in the water.

The top inch or so should be kept out of the water. If the upper part gets wet, it won't hurt it, but it should not stay completely underwater

As long as the base is covered by at least an inch or more, the position doesn't matter, but that's where the inlet ti the pump is.

It's about 6 1/4 total inches long. About 1 inch will be sticking out above the water for the knob (temp adjustment), so approximately 5 1/4 inches will be beneath the water.

no.. if you put a container on the top the water will just flow out ... to big an opening

up to about a foot - not enough to swim in but plenty to float and splash around - it's big and takes a while to fill up to that point though, especially if just using the sprayers.

The overall height is 30 inches, but the water ends up being like 22 inches deep.

If the water had an opening in the top, then all the contents would spill out on the floor. You can't do much about physics... it is held there by atmospheric pressure.

I estimate 6" to the countertop, another 9" to the bottom of our large sink. Now that you mention it, there is minor splash at counter level. I wipe down the counter often anyway, and would never have noticed were it not mentioned. I don't know whether my prior faucet splashed. With its added reach and height, this faucet covers my sink very well, so that I use the much handier pullout less often than I did with my previous horizontal pullout. If you have a large sink, this is a great choice!

not as long as you keep the best level. The water will spray out eventually. But using the collection trailers helps a lot

For a half drop, you will need a 70 in. For a full drop, you will need 108 in. For a puddle drop, you will need 120 in. Good luck

You need about 3 ft of clearance, assuming that you are storing a normal size kayak.

I don't know, but having seen how it works, I doubt it. It would further impede the water flow & likely run over.

I'm not sure - it is entirely closed so you can't see the water level when it's operational. I think the float was about an inch from the top to trigger it on, though. We never had a problem with overflow until the entire switch died.
