The WAYNE WaterBUG Auto On/Off Water Removal Pump automatically turns on when water is detected and shuts off when the job is done, giving you worry-free protection. Just set it in place, connect a standard garden hose, and let it do the work. Exclusive Multi-Flo Technology gives you two discharge options for faster, easier water removal. Use the top discharge in tight spaces like window wells, laundry tubs, and 5-gallon buckets. Switch to the side discharge for open areas such as flooded basements, flat roofs, garages, patios, or low spots in your yard. Designed to keep working when you need it most, the patented strainer helps prevent debris from clogging the pump while allowing it to remove water down to just 1/16 in., leaving surfaces virtually dry. With pumping power up to 1,350 gallons per hour, the WaterBUG Auto quickly clears unwanted water so you can get back to normal, faster.
