FAQ
What’s the difference between your 3/4 HP, 1.3 HP, and 1.6 HP electric water pumps?
Our electric water pumps come in different horsepower options to match your water pressure and flow needs:
-
3/4 HP models – Compact and efficient for small pools, ponds, or garden irrigation, with flow rates up to 2,640 GPH and a 34 ft head height.
-
1.3 HP models – Mid-range pumps offering around 770 GPH flow and 64 PSI pressure, ideal for backyard or household water transfer.
-
1.6 HP models – Heavy-duty pumps delivering around 814 GPH flow and 151 ft maximum lift, perfect for long-distance water movement or flood-drainage tasks.
What voltage are your electric water pumps designed for use with?
All of our electric water pumps are designed to operate on 115V / 60Hz. If your region uses a different electrical standard, a compatible transformer may be required for safe operation.
Can electric water pumps be used with saltwater, acid, or chemically treated water?
No. Electric water pumps in our collection are designed for fresh water use only, such as rainwater, tap water, or pool water. They are not suitable for saltwater, acidic, or corrosive liquids unless specifically stated on a product page. Always check the product description before use to prevent damage or corrosion.
What materials are your electric water pumps made of?
Our electric water pumps are built from high-quality materials such as 304 stainless steel or PP plastic reinforced with 30% fiberglass, depending on the model. Both materials provide durability, rust resistance, and reliable performance in wet or outdoor conditions.
What is the maximum water flow and lift capacity of your electric water pumps?
Depending on the model, flow capacity ranges from 660 GPH to 3,434 GPH, while maximum lift (head height) varies from 16 ft to 151 ft. Check each product page for detailed specifications, such as pressure, suction depth, and compatible hose diameters, to ensure the best fit for your setup.
What’s the difference between suction depth and head height?
These measurements help determine the total pumping distance and pressure capability.
Do the electric water pumps support variable speed control?
No. All electric water pumps in our collection operate at a fixed speed for efficient and reliable water transfer. They’re designed for consistent flow and low maintenance, without adjustable speed settings.
Do the electric water pumps have built-in thermal or overload protection?
Yes. Many of our electric water pumps include built-in thermal and overload protection that automatically turns off the motor when it overheats or runs under strain. This feature prevents coil or seal damage and protects the pump if water flow is interrupted.
For example, the 3/4 HP Electric Water Pump Sump Pump Stainless Steel and the Submersible Dirty Water Pump w/ Float, 3/4 HP 550W both feature automatic thermal shutoff for safe, reliable operation during extended use.
Do your electric water pumps include hose adapters and connection fittings?
Yes. Most electric water pumps include adapters for 1", 1¼", and 1½" hoses, along with other fittings like O-rings, clamps, and baskets, depending on the pump type.
How easy is it to install an electric water pump?
Our electric water pumps are designed for quick and straightforward installation. Each model includes a user manual with clear instructions, and most customers are able to complete the setup without professional assistance.
Can electric water pumps be used both indoors and outdoors?
Yes. All of our electric water pumps can be used indoors or outdoors when installed correctly:
-
Submersible pumps are safe for direct underwater operation in pools, ponds, or flooded areas.
-
Stainless-steel sump and booster pumps should be placed on dry, stable surfaces in protected or well-ventilated areas to prevent moisture exposure.
What’s the easiest way to backwash my above-ground pool?
The 3/4 HP Spa & Pool Pump & 16″ Sand Filter Above Ground makes pool maintenance simple with its 5-way control valve. You can choose between Filter, Backwash, Rinse, Waste, and Close settings to clean or flush your pool system by turning the handle.
This setup allows you to remove debris and maintain clear water without disconnecting hoses or fittings. It helps keep your pool filtration system running efficiently with minimal effort.
Do electric water pumps need to be primed before use?
Yes. Non-submersible electric water pumps must be primed (filled with water) before starting. Running them dry may cause motor damage.
How deep can I submerge the pump safely?
Our submersible pumps can be placed up to 23 feet (7 meters) underwater. Always keep the power connection above the water level and avoid exceeding the maximum depth for safe operation.
How often should I clean the basket or filter in an electric water pump?
We recommend cleaning the strainer or filter on your electric water pump at least once a week, or more frequently if operating in debris-heavy environments.
Can electric water pumps handle dirty water with leaves or solid particles?
Yes. Some electric water pumps, especially our submersible models, can handle solids up to 1 3/8" in size, ideal for ponds, basements, or flood water with debris.
What is the maximum water temperature electric water pumps can handle?
Most electric water pumps support water temperatures up to 35°C (95°F). Always refer to the product specifications to avoid exceeding operating limits.
Do you offer bulk discounts on electric water pumps?
Yes! We offer special bulk and seasonal discounts from time to time. Check our Electric Water Pump Collection or subscribe to our newsletter for the latest offers and savings.
What should I do if my electric water pump arrives damaged or doesn’t work?
