My Lowes 1/3 hp auto submersible turns on at 1 1/2", off at 1/4". However there is no head pressure. Will Wayne push 50' in 5/8" hose basically flat?

This pump works so well, I just purchased another one. I am lifting water about 10 feet in a hose with no problem at all. I do recommend to install a check valve in the line if it will lifting water as I am. When the pump shuts off, any water in the hose will drain back if you don't have this check valve causing the pump to see water and start again. I'm replacing two Lowe's pumps that didn't last any time at all.

Easily. That's basically my setup. I have my pump in a window well with a 5/8" hose coming out of it vertically and then flat for more than 50' and it works perfectly.

It should turn on in about an inch of water. If I had enough water in my bilge to cover it, it would seep into the stern drive and ruin it. I've never had more than 2 inches of water in my bilge, but it'll pump out a lot of water fast. Rule of thumb: 100 GPH capacity for every foot of boat and you'll be safe.

I had no need to do that. But, u might want to consider an adapter size to fit? Half an inch diameter seems to me would be sufficient with the water pressure I have. Hope this helps.

I don't think this can pull from that depth.....probably talking 1/2hp well pump power.

i tow a 24 foot rv with our 1/2 ton doddge, I have had no issue regarding the brake unit we hav ours set between 1-2.5 in auto mode and have used manuel mode also I feel that you would be more than satisfied by purchasing this unit there is more than ample adjustments (settings) to meet your needs, good luck on your purchase you will be satisfied.

No, i think you need a higher psi for that. Something else make sure the hose is 80 feet long . The box said we can get this at Walmart but is it not true . I E-mail Amazon about it that i wanted to buy the hose .no luck

FYI - I found out speaking to Order Tree (Simpson's outsourced technical service) the 3/8 hose (4500 PSI) is not the correct size for MSH3125-S MegaShot (3100 PSI), 1/4 is the correct hose. The real problem is the hoses don't come with quick connectors, required to connect the new hose.

Home Depot lists max operating pressure as 250 psi. I will order the 3/8" x 100ft hose soon and will try to comment there on the psi rating.

The instructions say 15 psi is the minimum. I have a 50 gal water barrel set up for watering with a hole about 6" away from the bottom, the barrel is almost full, and it doesn't seem to work with this amount of pressure. Granted, I couldn't get the timer to work from a hose, either.

With my use I usually only ran 40-50 lbs for good rpm control, and light load, and a 3/8 hose, possibly your load is overriding the torque, but at 150 lbs of pressure it is quite likely that you will need a 3/8 or larger hose for this to produce its max torque under a fairly heavy load. Dan

i suggest that you go into the manuacture www.delonghi dd50p 50 and post your question there.our purchase came with a longer hose than 3f. good luck. also check the back of themanuel, i believe assessories are available on line amd perhaps in home depot or lowes.

Mine is down 120', static water level in the well is 60', making the head pressure 60'. We get over 20 GPM at the surface - exactly as specified on their spec's. The pump will go as deep as 500' - you get less water the deeper you go. Go to this website for the spec's: http://www.redlionproducts.com/clean-water/4-submersible-well-pumps/ As to choking the pressure down to so many gallons per minute, you can buy a separate Dole Valve, rated at 5 GPM. They are for sale here; http://www.deanbennett.com/dole-flow-control-valves.htm

That sounds strange and here is why. Almost all bath fixtures have either 3/4 inch or 1/2 inch pipe feeding the supply, usually 1/2 inch for the final run. So that means the 3/4 inch should be more than enough. Even than, flow restrictors as mandated by communities are almost always at the end run or device (ie. shower head). So the limitation is either 1) the supply shut off valves (they could be as small as 1/4 depending on what is used) so check these or 2) your whole house pressure regulator. If your pressure/flow is low all over, especially at a garden hose, my bet is on this device. The good news is this adjustable...just get yourself a water pressure gauge (Home Depot/Lowe's) and checkout Youtube searching for "adjusting home water pressure" and you'll b able to increase it significantly. That being said, don't go crazy or you might stress your pipes. Other than that, can't think of any other reason why it would be low. FYI, I have one and it is great..and my pipes are 1/2 inch and I am running with about 65-70 psi. Hope this helps.

Are you talking a 1/2 in line? not just pressure but what volume at the reducer. Both are a factor and so is the straightness of the line. There is no easy answer. I have I run about 25 on a 40 foot 1/2 in and one 90. the runs are fairly straight.

Should be fine, we run it for half hour straight without any issue. Pressure just like home. Works great!

I have a craftsman 5HP Model 580.762010 and it bolted right up. My only complaint is that the inlet is very close to the handle rail and was a knuckle buster. A 45 degree hose fitting cured that. It seems to put up a lot more pressure than the old pump. It did not come with a key. Had to run down to Lowes for one since the old pump had the key built in. You cannot adjust the output pressure like the old pump. Considering the price it was worth the small hassle of buying a key and a 45 degree fitting. I would buy it again.Biggest lesson learned-- Do not loan out your power tools, even to relatives :) I have a craftsman 5HP Model 580.762010 and it bolted right up.
