I have a kiddie pool that I want to drain straight into the sewer (40 ft away). Will this work with an extension tube, if so what kind?

Please note that the pump is really just to start the siphon. This will probably only work if it is downhill all the way to the sewer. We use it for a rain barrel so we never looked into longer hoses.

You will have to purchase a "p trap" and whatever else you need to tie into your existing drainage/plumbing. I had a piece of 2'' pvc stubbed out of my wall for the purpose of a utility sink. The drain has a plug and is threaded on the bottom for simple attachment of a 1 1/2'' p trap.

hello. the line is 19 inches....i think it wont work. I went to lowes and got 1-foot extension lines. you need room to work with. also make sure you screw the copper rods tightly to the faucet or it we leak and you have tpo take the whole thing off to fix it. if you have any other questions u can call me . dave 818 804-1729. good luck.

It should work for draining the pool, just beware that the higher the water needs to be lifted, the slower it goes. The pump box shows in a bar graph that if the water is lifted 5 feet the max flow is 2000 gph, if lifting 10 feet max flow is 1400 gph, if lifting 15 feet max flow is 900 gph. If you're hoping for it to put out flow at rates like 20+ gpm (or 1200 gph), get hoses that are 1 inch or bigger.

Drain hose is very short, I used an old garden hose cut to desired length to reach my sump-pump.

I wouldn't use in a sewer . For that I'd rent an electric unit with a much bigger coil diameter. You don't want to encounter any hard blockage at more than a couple feet. That's how you can easily kink or snap off the coil on this product.

In the past what I have done is to use a 3" adapter that normally is used for flexible sewer hose. I grind off the four nubs so that the 3" pipe will fit over the adapter. The 3" pipe can be glued to the adapter. I assume that you are wanting to convert the flexible hose to permanent hard sewer line. Where the 3" 90 degrees into the 4" sewer line in the ground, I have ground down the the diameter of the 90 degree elbow to tightly fit inside the 4"drain. If the 4" line in the ground has the expanded end, the 90 deg elbow will fit without any grinding. Make sure of all your measurements but one can always use a 3" coupling to make adjustments.

would not connect directly. You would have to fashion your own discharge pipe (ex. 1&1/2 PVC with an adapter cap that reduces from 1 1/2 to 3/4" with threads. Then buy a 3/4"-3/4" adapter (one end is threaded for the PVC reducer, one end is garden hose threads). You may/may not want to get a 45 or 90 degree elbow. PVC cement where needed, thread tape/compound where needed. I built a rescue pump from my old sump pump (new one is in the pit). Your local hardware store should have everything.

You will either have to use a hose extender if you can find the right connector or buy a longer hose for the drain. I had to set my sink in close proximity to where the water drain from a raised deck.

That pump is set up for a 2" pipe. Reducing it to 1 1/2" will not work, especially if used for sewage.

A 40' run is a long way, but since your rise is only 3 1/2', that should not be a problem. I'm not a pro, but I expect the pump to work fine as long as you adhere to the 3/8" diameter.

It would not work with mine. The hose was too small and the basket also. It seemed as if this was for a smaller kiddie type pool.

Yes it will work if you can get the stopper below all of the connections into the drainpipe.

I have 1-1/2 pipe outlets on 4 sides of my inground pool and they worked perfectly- they screwed right in. Also, the 1" opening is perfect for a decent size pump (I have a 2HP pump).

I dug a 30' shallow well with the auger. You ideally would use stainless steel 3/4 inch couplers and 10' galvanized pipe additions. Don't use too many couplers as you might break the pipe or coupler as you bring it up to empty it. I broke one and had to replace the pipe once in my 30' digging. Hope that assures you. It looks like there are a couple of ways to go, as stated by others.

I have the M98, 1/2 HP version of this pump. The cord uses 16 gauge wire. In a pinch I have run it (to drain holes) on a 100', 14 gauge extension cord and it ran fine all day long. I am NOT suggesting doing any sort of permanent installation using an extension cord, but these things are built TOUGH and you really don't need too much electrical overkill. Besides, if it has a plugged cord it doesn't require a dedicated circuit, although that might be a smart idea. My crawl space sumps ARE on dedicated circuits.

I attached a short hose, about 10 feet long, depending where u want it to drain out (cut up an old hose to length or buy one at home depot etc.) - I drain mine onto the lawn with no problem. This outside sink center is really convenient.
