FOTING 1/2HP Sump Pump – 4900GPH High Flow Submersible Water Pump with Float Switch

Overview

Meet the FOTING 1/2HP sump pump, built to move water quickly and reliably across a range of spaces—from damp basements to pool decks. With an impressive 4900 GPH flow capacity and a lift height up to 29 feet, it helps restore dry spaces with minimal effort. A robust mechanical seal supports efficiency and provides dependable seal protection during demanding tasks, promoting smooth operation over time.

One standout capability is the ability to drain water down to 0.04 inches, making it suitable for tight spaces like boat bilges, pool covers, and pool bottoms where residual water matters. The automatic float switch engages when water rises above roughly 7 inches and shuts off around 1.5 inches, encouraging efficient energy use and reducing unnecessary operation.

Manual mode adds control: you can lock the float bracket to run the unit continuously for maintenance, testing, or during a temporary failure, helping to minimize downtime. Built with a durable thermoplastic body, the pump resists corrosion and adapts its speed to fluid viscosity, while the impeller remains resilient in challenging conditions. The unit runs quietly and aims to keep energy consumption in check.

Discharge versatility enhances adaptability: it supports NPT 1-1/2" and GHT 3/4" outlets, with a hose adapter that fits common hose sizes. This makes it suitable for flooded basements, swimming pools, cellars, or garden ponds. A quick pre-start tip helps prevent air pockets and freezing in cold weather: tilt the pump and submerge briefly to expel air. FOTING backs this product with professional technical support to help keep your water system stable and your tasks on track.
