Tool Daily 1200 GPH Submersible Pool Cover Pump

Adam: I removed the outer plastic shell from this and mounted it in a dehumidifier to drain it. It works great. After cutting away the outer case, there is an inner one around the pump itself and a water level switch that cleaning fit in a dehumidifier tank.

REBEL6367: It took off 4 inches of water off above ground pool cover and shut off just as it should have. Moved to another spot and it started, removed the water and shut off. Love it.

Dan J: As a submersible pump I was surprised to find rust all over the outlet port within a few days. There was one time the GFCI outlet was tripped too. That said, my pool was at the desired level when it came time to open in the spring.

Connie: In 2021, I bought 2 pool cover pumps from Amazon. Neither worked after 3 months. In Jan, 2022, I ordered a third one. Again it failed to make it to 3 months. Frustrated and angry, I ordered one in May. 2022, along with the Assurion warranty offered at checkout. All were different brands. Well, here it is August and the pump has quit. What is it with these? I contacted Amazon, chatted with someone, and was told it was past the 30 day return, but they would send a replacement, but charge restocking fee, etc. of course, I am aware of the return policy, but said I had the warranty. Long story short, they did not honor it. This is a great little pump, but don’t count on it working very long. As a long time Amazon Prime member, I’m very disappointed in Amazon.

jdsnetworking: I bought one of these because I was tired of manually having to drain my pool cover with a syphon hose over the hill. This little one pumps a lot faster than I expected. I used one of the included adapters to hook my regular water hose up to it, plugged it in and pushed it out in the middle of the cover.

Yes, I sat it on the edge of the cover and pushed it out to the middle with the telescoping pole for leaf net, lol. The power cord was long enough to reach to the outlet on the pool house. It started pumping as soon as I pugged it in and quickly had the cover drained.

My biggest concern for this type of pump was that it would turn over. It's very bottom-heavy (not top-heavy), so turning over isn't a problem at all. I wish i would have had this when I first moved to this house!

I see a few others listed with higher GPH rates, but honestly I think any more that the 1200GPH this one does would be overkill. Once it has the cover drained the very first time, keeping it drained isn't a problem... unless we had a hurricane or something dumping massive amounts of rain. Even then, the pump taking 20 min instead of 10 min to drain the cover on our 20' x40' pool isn't a...
