HVAC Condensate Pump, 115V/230V, Automatic Safety Switch, AC Condensate Removal for Air Conditioner, Furnace, Dehumidifier, 3.3' Power Cord, 9.6 GPH Mini Split Condensate

Works wonderfully with my portable Hisense large room AC/Heat unit. Very simple to install and it is very quiet. You do need a bit of a height difference to make it work smoothly; outside of that the flow rate and power are enough to allow my AC unit to stay on consistently. Definitely recommend this product, especially for those tired of dumping out water every few hours.

Installation is simple thanks to the mini-split design and included anti-vibration Velcro, making it easy to mount in tight spaces where traditional pumps won’t fit. In my setup, the small footprint allowed it to be hidden behind an under-counter ice maker, and the Velcro made mounting quick and secure.

Bought this to manage runoff water from some of my plant saucers and it works well. I drilled a drain hole in each saucer and plumbed vinyl tubing into the holes. Each tube runs to a 1/2” mainline which connects to the reservoir adapter provided. I really love that the reservoir is separate from the pump because it creates a ton of flexibility and it allows a setup that doesn’t have standing water in the plant saucers or anywhere else. I have pump outside the growing enclosure and reservoir inside. Reservoir is quite small but that works well for me and the whole setup works flawlessly. My only complaint is the pump is hypersensitive to debris. There is a screen in the reservoir but that screen allows clogging particles through to the pump. I solved by shoving some cheesecloth into each saucer drain. Pump is relatively fiddly to open up (4 screws) and unclog but very doable with some care. Runs perfectly now.

I added this to an older portable AC/heat pump because i didn’t want to drill a hole through my floor for continuous drain. I really like the performance but the pump stopped siphoning within 1 day and water overflowed out of the reservoir vent tube all over the floor. I contacted Aquastrong and they were awesome. they sent me a new one after providing evidence of the failure. My new one had the same issue so then i wondered if it was getting clogged. I had seen some debris (dust that washes off the evap to the drain pan). I’m an electronic tech & product designer for automotive electronics so i opened the pump and yep it was clogged. The siphoning holes in the pump are smaller than the filter screen in the reservoir so it takes very little to clog it. the easiest solution would be to have a finer mesh filter screen which i may try to create myself. also there should be a float/flapper that closes the vent tube if the pump fails and water wants to build. wiring to float switch to shut off the AC is the solution by its quite difficult for this portable unit. Maybe I’ll wire it to a short extension cable or something as a fail safe. So, make sure your unit is SUPER clean or figure out some intermediate filter solution. I would buy again if a better design isn’t available within $10 of this price. It’s far less expensive than most and others in this price range seem to be the same pump in a different color housing.

I purchased this product to use as a condensate pump for a mini split system. The mini split was installed on the wall opposite my garage, and I placed the pump on a shelf inside the garage. Initially, it worked fine from July through the winter. However, yesterday, a leak alarm alerted me to a problem. After cleaning the unit, it resumed working—briefly. Later that same day, I noticed it was running continuously again. When I opened the unit for a closer inspection, I discovered water inside the housing and significant corrosion on the electronics. The circuit board has no conformal coating or waterproof protection of any kind. Given that cold condensate runs through this unit, it naturally causes condensation to form inside the housing. Over time, this moisture damaged the electronics, rendering the pump completely inoperable after just nine months. This is a major design flaw. The electronics are not isolated from the pump area, which is unacceptable for a product meant to handle moisture. I’ll be replacing it with a full-size condensate pump that has proper isolation and protection for its internal components. Unless you’re installing this inside a fully controlled environment like within a refrigeration unit, I cannot recommend this product. It is poorly designed for typical mini split installations and is likely to fail prematurely.

Got this for a mini split that is installed on a interior wall. I was able to get it set up in the closet that the lines are hidden in and mounted to the wall. Was a little concerned with possible noise, but it's not a issue at all. Had to get a longer drain line from the pump due to drain location but not a issue at all. It was compact enough to fin inside the unit but wanted access to easily work on it if needed or go a different route if needed for reliability. So far a little over 2 weeks and it has not given any issues at all. Recommend this product so far!

I have a GE window AC unit that sits on the window sill like a saddle and has in internal condensate pump to remove water to the outside. That pump, one day, began making an awful and loud noise because the suction line got plugged up. It's so bad it had me thinking the unit had failed and the compressor had failed or something. Turned out the suction line was plugged up or nearly so causing the pump to overwork and make a loud noise. After opening the unit up my son and I were unable to find and clear the obstruction. I wound up opening the drain cap on the side of the unit and put a five gallon bucket under it but this bucket fill up every two days and has to be emptied. I began looking for a solution and found this AquaStrong pump. I used garden hose fittings as you can see in the photo to adapt the pump to the AC unit. The pump itself is connected to the lower hose elbow with a 5/8" female hose repair fitting using about half of the gray tube piece that came with the pump. I still have the bucket under it just in case. The AquaStrong has it's own separate reservoir with a level switch in it to run the pump that you can see poking out below the AC unit. I used two right angle hose elbows and a female hose end repair to connect the pump. I haven't tidied up the wiring yet. Giving it a chance to prove itself right now. It's been operating about a week now. The pump is mounted to the side of the AC with a Velcro strip which came with the pump. The pump runs about once every five or six minutes. There is an auxiliary contact which can be used with an external contractor to kill power to the AC so that the tiny reservoir does not overflow. I still have my bucket there just in case. The right angle hose fittings will allow me to swing the mini reservoir back under the AC unit completely out of sight. The pump discharges the water to the outside through a 3/8" hole I drilled through the insulation board around the AC unit. As I said the pump is very quiet. The only time I really noticed it running was the first time because it had to self prime to clear the air out of the suction tube. After that I've only heard it very infrequently and it was all but inaudible. Overall I'm satisfied with my purchase. I'll tidy up the wiring better after it has been in services for a while.

I bought this to use with the drain line of a small commercial ice maker. I needed to pump the water up about 22" to the sink and this pump has been doing the job for about 2 months now. The instructions that were included weren't overly clear and there were extra parts included that were not applicable for my installation (which caused a little bit of confusion). Anyway, it took me about 10 minutes to get it all connected and placed in the container that collects the drain water from the ice maker. It also has a built in backflow valve which is nice. Plenty of power in this little pump to get the water to where it needs to go.
