Little Giant PCP550 Pool Cover Pump Review

Little Giant PCP550 Pool Cover Pump

(More customer reviews)
Needed a small pump to remove the accumulated water from the pool cover after the snow melted. Worked in the pool industry for nearly three decades and was familiar with the brand name so I ordered this one after reading a few favorable reviews. Yes some of the important parts are plastic (the little elbow pipe for attaching a hose on the top and the debris screen), but given proper care and handling, they should last for quite a few years.
I was extremely impressed with the speed and ease of use of this little pump. It attaches perfectly to a standard garden hose and pumps water quite efficiently. Our winter pillows collapsed and the winter cover sagged into the pool, collecting about 2-3 feet of water at the deepest point. We suspended the pump above the deepest point using a rope tied across the pool and submerged it about a foot from the bottom to avoid the leaves and pine cones at the bottom. For a 20' pool, we were pumping out an average of about 3-4" per hour. Took one weekend to empty the thing to the point we could lift out the last bit of water and the debris on the bottom. There is no on/off switch so you simply plug it in to turn it on.
I don't know that I would leave this pump outdoors on a permanent basis (we are in New England so it gets really cold) but to pump and remove the unit as needed, this little bugger works like a charm. I would highly recommend it to anyone not looking to leave it out year-round in icy climates. If you're just looking for a great-working little pump to clear water off your cover in the springtime, this is the one to buy. Lightweight, easy to use and most importantly it does the job well.

Watersource Stainless Steel Well Point - For 1 1/4in. Pipe, Model# WP3680 Review

Watersource Stainless Steel Well Point - For 1 1/4in. Pipe, Model# WP3680

If you're thinking about buying this, you already know what it is. This is solidly made. The outer layer is perforated with fine mesh under it. In this case, I'm using it in a creek with a Wayne water sprinkler water pump and about 30' of section hose. Only one well point needed in this application. I have another application where I've put three of these on a manifold and buried them. No maintenance going on 12 years. Normal maintenance with these is to stick them in a wallpaper glue trough with dilute muriatic acid.

Beckett 7060110 210 GPH Underwater Pump for Small Ponds, Fountains, Waterfalls Review

I am using this pump in a small pond with a small waterfall - it is a strong, hard-working pump and works just fine in this application. I wouldn't recommend it for a big pond, but for the smaller one it works great. My "pond" is only 2 ft X 4 ft and I don't have the pump turned all the way up to full force.

Pumping 210 gallons of water per hour, this small submersible water pump is great for filtering small ponds (filter not included), shooting water out fountains, birdbaths and more. Designed for underwater use, the pump features a 7.1-foot maximum pumping height for small fountains and waterfalls, and for smooth water circulation in small ponds. The spraying power is also great for pond art, as well as wide spraying over a small pool. The pump also features a direct drive, epoxy-encapsulated design for oil-free operation and little maintenance aside from the occasional filter cleaning at the screened inlet. The purchase includes a 20-foot power cord and is covered by a manufacturer 2-year warranty.
