Description
The Drain Buddy 400 automatic sump pump (code 020-032) is a budget submersible drainage pump for the home. It pumps up to 117 litres per minute and reaches a maximum head of 8 metres from a 0.25 kW motor on 230v, and plugs into a standard socket.
A pendant cable float starts the pump as the water rises and stops it when the level falls, so it can be left in a cellar or basement sump to look after itself. It has a 1½″ (38 mm) threaded outlet and comes with a free stepped hose tail for easy hose connection, 10 metres of cable and a 3-pin plug.
To clear water right down to the floor, the Puddle Buddy 100 takes standing water down to 1 mm. For small sumps where a cable float could catch on the walls, the Sump Buddy has a built-in sliding float.
