## Questions & Answers

**Q: How deep does the water have to be before the pump activates? How much water does it remove? (example: down to 1/2" left on cover, or 1/4", 1/8", etc)**
A: About an 1 inch to turn it on goes down to about 1/2-3/4 inch

**Q: Does the pump automatically switch off if it gets clogged with leaves?**
A: I’ve never seen it clog up so much with leaves that it’s stopped pumping. As long as the sensor senses there is water to pump out, you want it to keep pumping. Getting a bunch of leaves around or in it thankfully hasn’t stopped it from pumping out water.

**Q: What is the weight of the product asin bo78jy3p8h ?**
A: Not very heavy at all!! We have an in-ground Pool that is 16x40... i had to put a chair on the cover over the pump to have the water come to the pump..

**Q: What’s the Warranty ?**
A: No sure but it should be better than what mine lasted which was a few months.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Not meant to leave in frozen water.
  

*by E***S on Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2018*

I never used the product as i thought it was a pump I could just leave on my pool cover. However, living in the north east, the water would freeze.  In the instructions for the pump, it states not to leave in freezing water due to potential damage to pump.  So I returned it.

### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Doesn't turn on until 1" of water has accumulated....
  

*by T***Y on Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2016*

The one thing that the company conveniently leaves out of their description HOWEVER includes in the box as documentation, is that the pump will not turn on until it has over an inch of water and shuts off before it gets down to less than an inch.  Does the manufacturer just not understand that this pump will NOT provide the necessary water removal necessary to keep a pool cover from damage?  Poor design that could easily be remedied by moving the sensor to a lower point on the unit's base......but as it is currently, I'd highly recommend using another manufacturer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    like turning it upside down to "trick" it
  

*by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2017*

The pump didn't work at first. I thought it was faulty. I called the company (through Amazon) to replace it and someone from the company emailed me back with some tips to get the pump started, like turning it upside down to "trick" it. Now it works great, especially when it is more than half submerged.
