CAN IT BE USED AS SHALLOW PUMP ONLY

The pump can be used as a in line pump. I pump out of a 1500 gallon tank & my pump is 60ft from the tank & I also have a fooot vaule about 6 inches from the pump in line to keep it(water) from bleeding back into the tank. and everything works well. hope this helps.

Shallow well pumps are limited to 33 ft or 1 atmosphere . This capacity depends on altitude higher altitude will reduce suction depth

My guess is that it wouldn't be a good use for this pump. Pumping with no back pressure can be a pretty good work out. With 20-30 feet of water you'd be lucky to make it for more than a minute

Yes. We have done exactly that. Just don't raise the end of the hose higher than the water level as you need the natural water pressure for it to work (no pumps are included).

You definitely can! And it last for about 2 mos. tops ; then starts either leaking or air escaping thru the pump area, but its junk if you ask me.

It not made to do this. Now after saying that, I have used two of them in dual assembly to purify water in my Motor home. You probably want to use it only with the hand pump as designed.

No. This is a single-user pump and should not be purchased used. It is an open system, and use by more than one person voids the warranty.

If you have the mounting space for it yes! just ensure the mounting clamps and pressure switch are secure and not interfere with the pump etc.

I'm not sure I understand your question. This pump is designed to connect directly to the drain fitting of a utility sink. Which is how I am using it.

You can but it needs to be wired. Other than that it has worked fine as an inground pump.

Yes, that will work. Be mindful that you don't try to run it through 3/4 for more than a few feet though. It's a great little pump!

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, but the unit will have to be positioned horizontally at that shallow water depth. You can remove the bracket and lay the filter directly on the bottom of the tank to make the profile shallower. This unit is larger than most people expect, but as long as the vents on the side are covered with water, you should be fine.

No, this is not that type of pump. You will need a transfer pump with more hp than this one.

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.

Its an amazing pump but I would not recommend it be used in conjunction with a tank less heater, these heater require a minimum of .5 gals per min. to activate so it wont work.

Yes you can, but it only can only be used for one supply line, either hot or cold, but not both. It is intended to be used as a cold water dispenser for filtration systems.

I doubt it. This is designed to inflate tires. and is a low volume, high pressure pump. Perhaps if you used this pump to fill up a storage tank first, it might work.
