VCL-24ULS 115 Volt, 1/18 HP, 270 GPH, Automatic Condensate Removal Pump with 1-Gallon Tank and Safety Switch, 6-Ft. Cord, Black, 553201

These pumps are quality made. Set it and forget it. The only thing that should be Noted is the discharge spout is not a check valve. Water Is able to run back into the tank. If you were going to have more than one pump on the same discharge line You will need one valves otherwise you will be pumping water back-and-forth from the pump. Not a drawback, these pumps are definitely recommend. But depending on your application, you may need one way valves like I do.

Works great

NOT the default 30-buck condensate pump from the home store! Heavy-Duty motor and good switching. Moves a LOT of water, or a little water quickly. My puny HVAC don't make much condensate, I wanted this more for reliability so I am not up at odd hours with tools and a wet-vac. So far (one day) so good. Very minor details: the safety-switch leads are ultra-short, so I have to lay on the floor to splice. A couple foot more wire would be nice at the price. There's just two holes in the top (of this high-capacity pump) and I have three drip-hoses. Re-plumb seasonally or get a funnel? The low-price pumps often have three holes and a hole-plug included. Pluses: comes with both open and check-valve fittings. Check-valve prevents that slosh-back at the end of the pumping, a bit more efficient; but open fitting drains the line so it won't freeze (like mine did). Note that one buyer says to clean the float-rod often, before it sticks (on OR off). You can remove the square plastic box (or just its screws) over the switches but beware! 120V on the switch lugs when cover is off. ___________ 2 months later: still pumping great!! If you cut the bottom off a plastic soda bottle, whittle the neck a bit, you can make a great "funnel" to accept 2 maybe 3 hoses in one hole.

Everyone giving this pump 1 star because it failed needs to read this... My pump also failed on me after a year of solid operation. The float switch was failing to activate the pump and resulted in water overflowing the reservoir. I opened it up and found when the float switch turns on the pump, there is a small residual amount of water not removed after each cycle. Over a year or more, this left-over water builds up algae & funk that attaches to the float shaft preventing it from actuating up and down correctly. This causes the condensate reservoir to overflow. A simple routine cleaning of the float mechanism and water reservoir, and it’s as good as new. I have had the pump running for 2 years now in great shape. TLDR: Clean yer shafts and all will be happy in the land for years and years!

Replaced a failing 13-year-old pump with the VCL-24ULS. It met the specs I needed at a reasonable cost and was available for next day early delivery. So far it has performed as expected. It runs a bit noisier than the original otherwise it'd be 5 stars. If it stands the test of time, I'll be pleased with the purchase.

Industrial motor empty’s in seconds, almost silent. Worth the price!

Worked an easy to install

I bought two pumps from Lowe’s for around $120 each. Both of the pumps failed less than 2-3 months. This pump has been excellent! It is strong and consistent! Easy to install!

This pump works like a charm

I have had my little giant pump for just under a year. Still in the warranty period. When it was 11 months old it failed causing minor flooding in my house. I contacted the manufacturer's Canadian rep listed on their website who told me it was Amazon's problem. Going onto the Amazon returns page only gives me a run-around. (Literally going around in circles) I have been forced to buy a second pump to avoid more flooding. Not happy with Little Giant or Amazon!
