Little Giant stands tall.....
Kevin G.✓ Verified PurchaseFebruary 19, 2024
Just what I needed to replace a tired old pump that could not handle 7' vertical and 40' horizontal run.. Extra power, quiet, easy to install; didn't require modification of drains off furnace/AC. To assess how good my central AC unit is working, I piped 18' of the 1/2"OD poly tubing into a 5 gallon bucket for the first week. I use AccuRite (AcuRite 00613A1 Indoor Humidity Monitor) hygrometers to monitor relative humidity in 3 locations in the home. During the first week, it runs several times a day resulting in 4 gallons of condensate removed from the home each day. Relative humidity @ 70F has dropped 14% making the home cooler and much more comfortable. I expect to get it down to my ideal midwestern summer RH% in the ~50% range.
Great buy, work perfectly

Works great and really easy to install. To think of how much I would have had to pay a professional. With my home warranty, it is $106 service fee just for them to come out and see what the problem is. I researched online for some possible sources of the leak in my basement near the old condensate unit. I watched a quick video on how to install the new condensate pump. It took maybe a half hour to figure out how to remove the old pump and install the new one and I am a total newbie. It is working beautifully.
Excellent choice for an AC condensate pump and works just as it should.

This pump works perfect. I bought a FloTec unit from a local business and it could not move the water. I am not sure why but this pump has no problem. It came with a three-prong plug so was able to cut that off and hard-wire it to the AC unit just as the old pump had been. The pump evacuates all the water from the holding tank in less than 10 seconds. On a hot day with our moderate humidity it runs about every hour or so. This model does not have wiring for an overflow sensor (that I believe will shut down the AC unit so that it quits producing condensation).
Review after 6 months of constant use...efficient, quiet and effective! Consider this HINT:

This Little Giant condensate pump does as good a job as one could ask for. It is being used as a replacement for the MARS brand pump that my downstairs heating and air conditioning unit came with, due to the fact that the MARS pump's motor was remaining in the "ON" position indefinitely and I knew its end was coming. After doing a bit of research I settled on this brand/model and could not have made a better choice. The unit was simple to install, runs very quiet (especially in comparison to the jet-engine-like MARS pump), and pumps efficiently. That last part seems like it would not be a big deal but the way my unit is set up it is required to pump vertically from the floor up an eight foot wall and then horizontally across that wall about fifteen feet to where it enters the waste pipe...this unit is certainly up to the challenge. The price was excellent in comparison to other pumps sold locally at the hardware stores and plumbing supply stores.
One minor nitpick, and for me this was not a significant shortcoming as it sits on my basement floor - this pump has no overflow cutoff wires coming off of it and hence does not offer that feature that some condensate pump models do.

HINT: During my research I learned to put a teaspoon of household bleach into the tank of the pump every few months (mixed into the water awaiting pumping) to keep algae from growing in the water standing in the pump's tank. It will cut down on any standing water odors in your house and prolong the lifespan of your pump.
Good luck.
Ten years or more pumping 3-4 gallons a day and still works fine.

I just bought an exact replacement as I'm going on 78 and I want my wife or sons to have it easy to replace the pump should I go to Valhalla before the present pump quits. The reason is the pump is hard piped with PVC tubing so to avoid cutting away the existing tubes and replumbing at least one pipe. The new one can be easily installed. Even the mounting holes should align.
Just a little warning. These things should be cleaned whenever the furnace filter is changed. I didn't know that and aprevious pump plugged up causing water to build up in the exhaust fan pan inside the furnace housing. (Check that too with each filter change) The water caused the plastic blades on the fan to break. It could have been fixed but newer most energy efficient models were available. So the furnace was replaced with a 95% efficient furnace which has a metal impelled fan.
The furnace is in the basement so this pump pushes the condenser water up 6-1/2ft, then horizontal 17 ft, then down to the laundry tub. I catch most of the water in a bucket and use it to wash clothes.
This is Michigan. High efficiency furnaces suck outside air in and exhaust air out thru PVC pipes. In the winter, that works fine as the humidity inside the house helps keep us warm. In the summer with AC running, humidity builds up in the basement requiring a de-humidifier.
So what I will do as soon as the weather changes a bit warmer will be to cut the intake elbow out and install a swimming pool diverted valve.
So when the AC is on, the intake air will be pulled from inside the basement and condensed to be pumped out for the laundry.
I won't need the de-humidifier. Ta-Dah.
Only one problem is in Michigan, we can go from heating to AC twice in a day.
