Keep unwanted rainwater and snow melt off of your pool cover this fall and winter with the new 1/4 HP WAYNE WaterBUG Pool Cover Pump, WWB PCP. The automatic switch turns the pump on when there is 1-5/8 in. of water and then off when the water is gone. The carrying strap makes placing this pump where you need it easy. Avoid the hassle of manually turning your pump on and off. The magnetic float switch does the work for you. Just set it and forget it, even when the temperatures fall below freezing. With the included 25 ft. pull-to-shore rope, you can avoid damage associated with pulling on the power cord or hose and easily position your pump. The WWB PCP also provides automatic freeze protection through the winter to help prevent pump damage. Our Patented multi-ring suction strainer filters debris, keeping it clear from the suction intake which minimizes clogging. This powerful tool pumps up to 1900 Gallons Per Hour, connects to a standard garden hose and removes water down to a 1/2 in. of the surface.
